Kör Baykuş - Kırmızı Kedi Klasikler

Blind Owl - Red Cat Classics Book Description Blind Owl is a novel that impresses its readers with its first sentence and leaves people confused when it ends. An anonymous painter's attempt to explain to his shadow resembling an owl (indirectly to the reader) the nightmares that make his life miserable, turns into confessions and delirium where reality and delusion mix after a point. These confessions and delirium, which do not progress linearly but repeat themselves irregularly and become deeper each time, are actually a eulogy for "death" from the first line. Sâdık Hidayet's novel, which André Breto described as "If there is such a thing as a masterpiece, this is it", is one of the most important works not only of 20th century Iranian literature but also of contemporary world literature. The Blind Owl, from its original language, with the brand new translation of Okan Alay... "We are the children of death. Only death will save us from the deceptions of life. It calls out to us from within life, calling us to its side. At the age when we cannot yet understand people's language, we sometimes pause in the middle of the game, this is because we hear the sound of death at that moment." It is our hearing. Death keeps haunting us throughout our lives. I wonder if it has ever happened to anyone? (From the Promotional Bulletin)
