ŞEYDA KURT
The setting is a city neighborhood. The time is the apocalypse. At least, that’s what more and more people believe, spurred on by a prophecy spreading like wildfire across the internet. Meanwhile, young Sanya roams through the wild, run-down neighborhood—where people stick together despite everything—with a pistol in her backpack—until one day she encounters a strange figure.
Somewhere between a furious epic and the most colorful pop, between an existential opera and the warmest soap opera, Şeyda Kurt asks what opportunities lie in the collapse of all orders. Sanya and her dazzling chosen family are deeply entangled in the history of their community, which spans borders and time.
Can people live differently? Stirring, intelligent, and transformative, this debut novel proclaims: Yes.
