Shrinking Book Description Oh, Book! Author Mine Soysal, who reached hundreds of thousands of readers with her masterpiece, focuses on isolated lives in her latest novel. The author, who brings together the resentful voices of young people, their accumulated anxieties, some angry and sometimes brave expressions, in the poor neighborhood of a small Anatolian city, holds on to communication and understanding while expressing the heartbreaking and difficult aspects of life. The novel, which realistically conveys the different effects of similar conditions on ordinary people, salutes with its subtle language those who dispel fears with solidarity and embrace life with all their hearts. That summer, when Mete was about to start high school, came with distressing problems. As if financial difficulties and the silent helplessness of his physically disabled sister were not enough, the noise of the new neighbors is strong enough to drown out Mete's inner voice. Witnessing domestic violence for the first time shakes up her stable life, and her neighbors' son, Ömer, catches her by the collar. Fortunately, their psychologist aunt, who came to them to write her thesis, creates a sweet summer breeze in their poor house. Will the hope shining in Sıla's olive eyes, most of which she doesn't understand, in her aunt's words, be enough to relieve Mete's anxiety? (From the Promotional Bulletin)
