Kayıp Söz

A writer who can no longer write and has lost his words. A passionate scientist and her sons who reject the criteria of success imposed on her and take refuge on remote islands to escape the violence that surrounds the world. A Kurdish young man who escaped from the violence of the mountains, where he climbed with the call of epics and the rebellion of oppression. A young girl running away from tradition. A confessor. A stranger whose pieces are scattered everywhere in the blind attack of a suicide bomber in Istanbul. A city in the Southeast, a special woman, a special life. A tiny island in Norway, a child waiting for his mother, a fairytale princess who will never come.
Where does violence begin? While slaughtering experimental animals in the laboratory, dying or killing in war? While imposing your own values on your child or taking photographs of human suffering? While practicing the custom, making love, or alienating the stranger?

He was looking for a word: a lost word whose source had dried up. He heard a voice: "Zarok Kustin! They killed the child!" He followed the scream, went far away, reached people and found the word.
In Oya Baydar's new work, Lost Word, the novel meets people and conscience.
