Yaşar Kemal, who wrote the legends of Köroğlu, Karacaoğlan and Alageyik in his own unique style with his admiration for folk legends and myths, also pays his debt of loyalty to the fertile lands that nourish his narrative power with "Three Anatolian Legends".
Walking for miles, running up and down mountains and valleys, he would hunt down first the laments, then the folk songs, ballads, epics, all the rhymed and unrhymed word varieties of Çukurova, tongue twisters, curses. It wasn't a folklore collection or anything, this was a life-and-death business, he was saving the real property of Çukurova, he was responsible against wolves and birds, no kidding.
