The Series of Modern Turkish Cypriot Literature


I am proud to say that I have had the opportunity to work for this wonderful project. I know its been a while since the books were published, but it has and will remain fresh in my mind forever the memories. I have been appreciated for my hardwork for the design and the layout. This is the first time a series has been published on the works of the Turkish Cypriot literature and it compromises of eight volumes in a series. The collection is produced under the supervision of Dr. Mehmet Yashin.

Volume 1: Poetry (167 pages; edited by Suzan Yılmaz, featuring works
by 37 writers)
Volume 2: Operettas and Plays (305 pages; edited by Bilen Kılıç, 25 writers)
Volume 3: Memoirs and Travel Writing (358 pages; edited by Ahmet
Gildir, 32 writers)
Volume 4: Short Stories (358 pages; edited by Gür Genç, 34 writers)
Volume 5: Novels (370 pages; edited by Turhan Uludağ, 20 writers)
Volume 6: Essays (429 pages; edited by Nazan Ökçün, 51 writers)
Volume 7: Literary Criticism and Study (776 pages; edited by Murat
Bülbülcü, 29 writers)
Volume 8: Biographies and Bibliography (213 pages; edited by Jenan Selcuk)

I do hope you would pick up a copy and read it. Its available in supermarkets and book stores in Cyprus. And if possible leave some comments for me. Happy reading.
