Written over a period of thirty-two years, the İnce Memed quartet is the story of Memed, who rebels against the system, and of Çukurova with its human relations, nature and colors. In Yaşar Kemal's words, it is the novel of a person "born with the worm of rebellion inside him", a "forced man". Çiçekli Mahmut Ağa throws the villagers who work their land in Çiçeklideresi village out of their land because they protect İnce Memed. Thereupon, Memed kills Çiçekli Mahmaut Ağa. The oppressors' fear that killing will not end turns into hope with the idea that "even if one İnce Memed leaves, a thousand Memeds will replace him". "A great writer, a great book... So it seems that a work that appeals to both the well-read and the less-read can be written. A work that appeals to both the less-read can be written. A work that is both an epic and an individual; a work that unites the heart and the mind." Anne Philippe, Liberation, (France) "Yaşar Kemal is not only the greatest novelist of Turkey, but also a giant of world literature." Alain Bosquet, Magazine Litteraire, (France) "A great literary event. A Turkish novel of world scale." Liv Kooter Lauhn, Morgenavisen, (Norway) "Can we ignore such a wonderful song of love, death and rebellion that expresses these magical and most natural worlds?" Jacqueline Piateri Le Monde, (France)
