Anadolu Garajı

In his stories, Fakir Baykurt deals with problems such as the harshness of village life, poverty, ignorance, bigotry, superstition and exploitation, and deals with the material and spiritual world of the villagers from a socialist and realistic perspective. Based on observations and live testimonies, the author occasionally uses a humorous language by bringing daily spoken language into the story; It strikingly depicts the "ordinary person" who is stuck between the wheels of bureaucracy but harbors hope within him, along with the atmosphere of the place he lives in. May those who caused me to be punished! May my mother, my mother-in-law, my husband, all be punished! May the faces of all those who touched me be punished! Those who held my hands and made me faint, those who made me feel bad, I'm cursed now, I'm cursed while looking at the sky, I'm cursed while the bride from Ömercik is doing her job, I'm cursed when I answer someone who asks me how I am. "I won't put this on you!" I say, "I will take my revenge no matter what!" I will burn the village where you all stop, the house where you all enter into marriage! "How did you take my baby?" I say. Ah; oh the world, oh; oh despair!"(I will give birth in the mountains)
