The Man Resembling Marx – Fazilet Yılmaz

Who is the man who comes into my story suddenly, who crushes my lace without hesitation, raises new questions in my head, resembles the man who resembles Marx?” The Man Who Resembles Marx is the first story book by Fazilet Yılmaz. These stories, which are the work of a disorganized mind, succeed in reflecting the mental world of the narrators into the text in its purest form. Stories that have issues with the world and try to resist the incomprehensibility of life. We can also say that a young mind’s challenge to life.
Dragons Notebook – Collective

Why does the spring wind blow south every year…
“…He was born in a horse barn by a beggar lady in the winter of the year when the war was about to end.

Magnolia Tree and Stone Gardens – Güngör Ağrıdağ Mungan
I found a way through the crevices and rocks, and went up to the hill. I was glad to feel my strength as I listened to my breathing. I sit on a flat rock and watch the bay.
Karşı Balcony – Yaşar Erkmen
A re-readable, gripping and rational style… The heroes, who appear in some places with the Aegean dialect and in some places with the Adanali dialect, are the characters of the author. He is engraved in our memory with his masterful narration. Karşı Balcony takes its place in our literature as an example of meticulous work, each of which was written by a Turkish teacher of forty years. Enjoy your time.
Three Nights – Turgay Delibalta
The absence of the Euphrates scares him a lot; in the big city where he had just settled; He didn’t know what to do alone. Those who fed their dreams disappeared in an instant. Horns of cars at night; the shepherd dogs in the village; coyotes; reminiscent of wolves. He was about to be in a forest.
Mold – Mahmut Altınöz
Mold, a portrait. The projection of diving places. Contemporary music of the nightingale, who sings by pressing her heart against a thorn, is the story of lovers who do not die of blood loss and die of heartbreak. A complex narrative of what awaits us, not of the past. The determination that the wise dwarves are actually tall and beautiful, and that although the arrogant princes have offended their pure lovers, the desire to be a prince in a story is rekindled somewhere in us. There is poison and confusion in us. The war of the antidote is destroying us. Everything starts with a word. Then you see that what you started is actually an end. Then you want to remember the beginning of this end, but everything is flowing.

The girl who came through the door walked in with a confident but shy attitude. Every step he took was a step that took Seyid’s breath away, a step that distracted Seyid from his mind, the steps that changed the rhythm of Seyid’s heart. She walked. Walked. And finally she arrived at her destination. The table where Seyid sits. Seyid’s breathing had accelerated and his exhalations slowed down. It was as if their breathing was at war. One side wanted to go out and offer a sign of life, while the other side wanted to stay inside and give life on top. While all these storms were breaking, inside Sayid, Seyid’s heart had already declared its independence. While Seyid was fighting with himself, he was talking to himself, a defeated commander;
“Yes. You took the trouble. For years, for years, you stopped and even ran away. You said no love Take it now, stop it,” he said. He lifted his head. He lowered his eyes.

Foam of the Days – Photographed by Boris Vian
“’I would love to fall in love,’ said Colin. ‘You would love to be in love. He also wanted one-to-one (ie falling in love). We, you, would love to fall in love, you would, and they would.” There was a Colin in this strange world where music turns into colors, colors turn into feelings, and happiness gains volume and overflows from one’s eyes. The good food of his wonderful cook, Nicolas, the cuteness of the mouse with the black mustache, the conversations of his dear friend Chick’s Jean-Sol Partre were no longer consoling him properly. Colin wanted to fall in love. And one dance was enough with the lovely Chloé that makes the flowers jealous. The Foam of Days is a novel in which reality bends, cheers and gets bored, and love is revealed in the most extraordinary form and style; A parable that looks at the world through kaleidoscopes.
“The most touching love story of our time.” –Raymond Queneau
