- More about Turkey: The Insane and the Melancholy
Ece Temelkuran's Turkey: The Insane, the Melancholy is a beautifully rendered account of the struggles, hopes, and tragedies that make Turkey what it is today, challenging the authoritarian AKP government and finding hope in the Gezi Park protests and the electoral breakthrough of the progressive HDP party.
Format: Paperback
Length: 304 pages
Publication date: 28 July 2022
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing (UK)
Starting with the basic question of what this place is, award-winning journalist and novelist Ece Temelkuran takes us on a journey through her beloved country of Turkey. In challenging the authoritarian AKP government, which led to her losing her job as a journalist, Temelkuran finds strength and wisdom in the people, places, and artistic expressions around her. The result is a beautifully rendered account of the struggles, hopes, and tragedies that have shaped Turkey into what it is today. Lamenting the commercialization and authoritarianism that increasingly characterize Turkish society, Temelkuran sees hope in the Gezi Park protests of 2013, the electoral breakthrough of the progressive HDP party in 2015, and in the simple kindness of ordinary people.
More than just a straightforward history or memoir, Turkey: The Insane, The Melancholy is like sitting with a friendly stranger over raki or coffee, revealing the secrets of this rich and complex country, the historic bridge between east and west.
