520  1   $a"Not Even My Name is the story of Sano Halo's
         survival of the death march at age ten that annihilated her
         family - as told to her daughter, Thea - and the
         mother-daughter pilgrimage to Turkey in search of Sano's
         home seventy years after her exile. Sano, a Pontic Greek
         from a small village near the Black Sea, also recounts the
         end of her ancient, pastoral way of life in the Pontic
         Mountains.".
520  8   $a"In the spring of 1920, Turkish soldiers pounded
         on doors with the butts of their rifles and shouted the
         proclamation issued by General Kemal (Ataturk): "You are to
         leave this place. You are to take with you only what you can
         carry..." On their death march, victims lay where they fell
         and buzzards hung above their heads. So ended the
         three-thousand-year history of the Pontic Greeks in
         Turkey.".
520  8   $a"At age fifteen Sano was sold into marriage to a
         man who brought her to America. He was three times her age.
         Not Even My Name follows Sano's marriage, the raising of her
         ten children, and her transformation from an innocent girl
         who lived an ancient way of life in a remote place to a
         nurturing mother and determined woman in twentieth-century
         New York City."--BOOK JACKET.
