About This Item
NY: William Morrow, 1979. 1st US. Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. Hardcover in a bright, unclipped dust jacket. Translated from the Turkish by Thilda Kemal. 220 pages. The influence of mysticism and the occult upon the unsophisticated mind is a major theme in this powerful novel depicting a terrible winter endured by the Yalak villagers of Turkey. After a bad cotton harvest, they are unable to pay their creditor, the shopkeeper, Adil Effendi; and such a break with age-old tradition overwhelms them with shame and guilt. They wait in terror for Adil to come, but he fails to appear and in his inexplicable absence his figure swells until it fills their minds and they become sick with apprehension, sure that some terrible disaster will befall them. Clean copy. Record # 384975
