This collection of new essays brings together scholarly examinations of a writer who-despite the prestige that the Nobel Prize has earned him-remains controversial with respect to his place in the literary tradition of his home country. This is in part because the positioning of Turkey itself in relation to the cultural divide between East and West has been the subject of a debate going back to the beginnings of the modern Turkish state and earlier.
