The Book of Dede Korkut

The Book of Dede Korkut is a collection of twelve stories set in the heroic age of the Oghuz Turks, a nomadic tribe who had journeyed westwards through Central Asia from the ninth century onwards. The stories are peopled by characters as bizarre as they are unforgettable: Crazy Karchar, whose unpredictability requires an army of fleas to manage it; Kazan, who cheerfully pretends to necrophilia in order to escape from prison; the monster Goggle-eye; and the heroine Chichek, who shoots, races on horseback and wrestles her lover. Geoffrey Lewis's classic translation retains the odd and oddly appealing style of the stories, with their mixture of the colloquial, the poetic and the dignified, and magnificently conveys the way in which they bring to life a wild society and its inhabitants. This edition also includes an introduction, a map and explanatory notes.

Ne İçin Varsan Onun İçin Yaşa

“Tüm muhteşem hikâyeler iki şekilde başlar. Ya bir insan bir yolculuğa çıkar ya da şehre bir yabancı gelir.” -Tolstoy Demirden keskin bir düdük sesi yükseldi o sırada. Ayrılığın ciddiyeti buz gibi sardı bedenimi. Kapılar kapandı sonra... Çantam sağımda, yalnızlık karşımda... Gidiyorum! Hayır bir saniye! Filmlerde böyle olmazdı ki... Son anda muhakkak bir kalma sebebi yazardı senarist. Tam hareket etmek üzereyken trenden atlayıverirdi esas adam. Oysa şimdi rayların üzerinde kaymaya başlamıştı bile tren... Ayrılığın göğsüme oturan ağırlığıyla camdan dışarı bakıp el sallayan insanlarla dolu peronu izledim. Beni uğurlamaya gelmeyen herkese teşekkür eder gibi bir damla gözyaşı bıraktım oraya.
