“If you love books enough, books will love you back.” –Jo Walton
Synopsis
Writing from within the cultural landscape of modern Turkey, this compendium of original scholarship addresses the diversity of daily life, often overlooked by conventional western critiques, within a rapidly changing society. Issues discussed range from the commodification of the Islam veil as a fashion item and the media explosion of interest in Turkish transsexuals to the strained cross-class relations between apartment tenants and their doorkeepers.
