Rezensionen

The individual narratives of the people Genç writes about, or through, compose the book's story as a whole while situating it within the fluctuating political atmosphere of the country. This anchoring moves the reader through various human experiences - disappointment, failure, representation - with thorough exploration and deep empathy, while also examining potential future projections of a young nation.
