Geçmişe Yolculuk-Bez Ciltli

Journey to the Past - Cloth-bound Book Description: On the one hand, an ambitious man who is a successful engineer despite his difficult childhood, and on the other hand, the beautiful wife of his boss, for whom he works as an assistant. These two lovers, captives of a forbidden and passionate love, are dragged into a nine-year separation with the outbreak of the First World War. As they continue on the path that fate has drawn for them, they are unaware that they have fallen into the clutches of a deceptive optimism when they finally reunite one day at a train station. Although the train journey brings them closer, it doesn't take long for them to realize that there is a gap too big to close between them. They are now just two lonely shadows chasing the past. In the other story in the book, The Star Over the Forest, Zweig tells the story of an unrequited love reaching its peak and falling helplessly into darkness on the train tracks leading to nothingness, and once again sheds light on the hidden sides of the human soul. We present this work, which deals with the emotional turmoil caused by devastating unknowns and which both hurts and warms people's hearts with Zweig's subtle analyses, with Levent Bakaç's careful translation.
