Writer Yaşar Kemal, Who Hunted an Eagle with His Eyes
6,69 EUR
3,68 EUR
A “literature miracle!” that emerged from the fertile lands of Çukurova and tells the whole world in an epic language about the nature and smell of its country; its eagle, its immortal grass; its working people and the rightful honor of the struggle of those people against oppression.
Zülfü Livaneli, the powerful pen of Turkish literature, tells about his greatest master of all time, his friend and companion of forty-four years; his "Brother Yaşar".
Yaşar Kemal reaches the summit by forming his own literary theory stitch by stitch and reaching out to the people of the world in his literary life that started in the city where he was born. He crowns the inspiration he gets from epics, Anatolian legends, myths, and elegies with his flawless descriptions, his intuition that goes to the deepest depths of human psychology, and his realistic fiction. He makes people live the tragedy, not the drama. He follows the paths opened by Homer, Karacaoğlan, Cervantes, Chekhov, and Dadaloğlu. And he lights a fire in the mountains of Anatolia and enlightens the whole world.
“When I think of Yaşar Kemal, crazy folk songs come to mind,” says Livaneli. He writes in his lines the folk songs they sang on the snowy streets of Stockholm, the wide squares of Paris and perhaps every street in Istanbul. Even in the darkest periods when the country was surrounded by unsolved murders, terror, censorship and even in the years of exile, Yaşar Kemal’s hopeful heart keeps those around him on their feet.
Yaşar Kemal, whose heart and pen were always on the side of friendship, brotherhood and peace; whom Sait Faik called “the most Kurdish of Turks, the most Turkish of Kurds”, the “miracle of literature”, is once again reaching eternity through the pen of a friend.
