Originally published in 2011, The Mosquito Bite Author is the seventh novel by the acclaimed Turkish author Barış Bıçakçı. It follows the daily life of an aspiring novelist, Cemil, in the months after he submits his manuscript to a publisher in Istanbul. Living in an unremarkable apartment complex in the outskirts of Ankara, Cemil spends his days going on walks, cooking for his wife, repairing leaks in his neighbor’s bathroom, and having elaborate imaginary conversations in his head with his potential editor about the meaning of life and art. Uncertain of whether his manuscript will be accepted, Cemil wavers between thoughtful meditations on the origin of the universe and the trajectory of political literature in Turkey, panic over his own worth as a writer, and incredulity toward the objects that make up his quiet world in the Ankara suburbs.

Empty Wardrobes is a tightly plotted, highly entertaining read, that, thanks to an ingenious detached narrative technique (one that makes the plot all the more fun to revisit and rethink), is both darkly humorous and devastatingly true.

"Derecho de gentes es el nombre tradicional europeo para lo que, desde que arrancan, entre los siglos XVIII y XIX, los tiempos constitucionales, se llama el derecho internacional. Guardan en común que, siendo en origen ambos de producción europea, se pretenden el uno como el otro derecho de toda la humanidad. Son así también criatura del colonialismo, lo que hoy suele acusarse más del primero, del de gentes que, del segundo, del internacional. Y éste último es gemelo pretérito y presente del constitucionalismo, aunque el caso es que no suelen abordarse de forma conjunta. Derechos de otras gentes existieron ayer y existen hoy a horcajadas entre unos tiempos coloniales y unos tiempos c...
