Description
This English-language Turkish classic explores love and loss in a changing world. A shy young man leaves his home in rural Turkey to learn a trade in 1920s Berlin, where crowded streets, a thriving arts scene, passionate politics and seedy cabarets provide the backdrop for a chance meeting with a woman who will haunt him for the rest of his life. With a new introduction by David Selim Sayers, this emotionally powerful, intensely atmospheric and touchingly profound novel examines new beginnings and the unfathomable nature of the human soul. It has been praised as a heartbreaking, gorgeously melancholic romance and a miniature masterpiece with the impact of The Great Gatsby.
