Expected a better product

Didn't read the book yet. I gave only 2 stars because the quality of the book. Don't buy this book in faber publications. They reduced the size of the page and reduced the font size. I think I should use a magnifying lens to read it. Worst print!!!

Here the plot is based on the events which unruffled in few winter days ,during the late 80's in a small northeastern Turkish town with Kurdish majority population and its recital by a journalist. This book gives an insight to the trouble torn areas of Kurdish region, Kurdish militancy, rise of Islamic fundamentalism in Secular Turkey, communist movements and the secular military ...

Schizophrenia Provoked

A beautifully narration of constant struggle with oneself and confronting the different mindset of people like leftist, Islamist etc. Love and redemption from unknown guilt create a mesmerizing environment.
