Car Love - Red Cat Classics

Araba Sevdası - Red Cat Classics Book Description Among the most important Turkish works of the post-Tanzimat period at the end of the 19th century, the first thing that comes to mind is undoubtedly Araba Sevdası. Nazlı is the tragicomic story of pashazade Bihruz Bey, who was brought up, did not receive a proper education, and was left alone with his naive and ignorant mother and a large inheritance when his father died... Recaizade Mahmut Ekrem portrays the "white-fingered dandy" type, which is often encountered both in the novels and in daily life of the period, with all its reality. portrays it in a love story. While presenting a criticism of the period through Bihruz Bey, he actually presents an immortal example of a type whose similarity we still encounter today. Car Love is one of the works that will never get old... "For example, in winter, when you see a bright open air, you wear a tight and tapered jacket behind you so as not to harm the abstract ornaments, and a velvet cover on your knees to look abstractly adorned, and you are eager to drive on Beyoğlu street and Kağıthane roads, and you feel the strongest north wind." Bihruz Bey, who trembled in front of him, would eagerly boil himself under the hottest sun on the roads of Çamlıca, Haydarpaşa and Fenerbahçesi on thirty-thirty-five degree hot days in the summer, but he considered this torment the greatest pleasure for himself. Wherever Bihruz Bey went, wherever he was, his purpose was not to be seen but to be seen alone.” (From the Promotional Bulletin)
