He received 38 awards during his lifetime and had been a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature on the strength of his 1955 novel Memed, My Hawk. An outspoken intellectual, he often did not hesitate to speak about sensitive issues, especially those concerning the oppression of the Kurdish people. He was tried in 1995 under anti-terror laws for an article he wrote for Der Spiegel highlighting the Turkish Army's destruction of Kurdish villages during the Turkish-Kurdish conflict. He was released but later received a suspended 20-month jail sentence for another article he wrote criticising racism in Turkey, especially against the Kurds.' (Wiki) ***'Several times nominated for the Nobel Prize, Yashar Kemal is acknowledged as Turkey's greatest living writer and one of the world's foremost story-tellers. His many novels create an unforgettable picture of Turkey's feudal past and present.' (Quote taken from the back cover) ***A first printing of the first UK paperback edition of this interesting Turkish / Kurdish work, in nice collectable condition. An uncommon book. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Artikel-Nr.
