| Beschreibung: | |
| The female writer Üstün Bilgen-Reinart was born in Ankara, moved to Canada when she was a teenager and recently returned to Turkey. In this memoir and travel literature she describes the people, politics, and passions of her native country, whisking the reader on a journey through time, memory, and space. She looks at the roots of her own ancestry and uncovers a family secret, breaks taboos in a nation that still takes tradition very seriously, and navigates through dangerous territory that sees her investigating brothels in Ankara, probing honour murders in Sanliurfa, encountering Kurds in the remote southeast, and witnessing the rape of the earth by a gold mining company in Bergama. | |
