'Yaşar Kemal is one of the greatest narrators of the contemporary world. Reading it is understanding life itself. He writes like a fearless hero.'
-John Berger-

'Yaşar Kemal is the oldest traditional narrator since Homer. It is the voice of a people who have no other voice.'
-Elia Kazan-

'Fortunately, Yaşar Kemal found the tradition of expression that we have lost. After twenty-five to thirty centuries, by turning history and politics upside down, the Greek poet (Homer) remained silent and it was the Trojan poet (Yasar Kemal)'s turn to speak.'
