The Full Circle takes to a conclusion the story of Conrad, the son of Harry Bridgeman and his Armenian wife Olga, the two principal characters in Haig Tahta's Constantinople trilogy. The novel refers to events and characters not only in the trilogy but also in the novel that immediately precedes it - Brothers. However, The Full Circle stands entirely on its own and is a great read even without having explored the earlier books. As is the case in many of Tahta's novels, the issue of personal identity looms large. The Full Circle, written from the point of view of several different characters, explores the harrowing search for identity suffered by the diasporas of so many dispersed peoples, as exemplified in the break-up of Yugoslavia and the effect the historical events had on those caught up in that tragic conflict. The conclusion makes a final link between the beginning and the end of the century that connects in Sarajevo.
