A Place to Watch the World

A Place to Watch the World Book Description

They leaned towards the table, one of them pressed his finger on the spot where the flashlight was on the small map in front of me and said: “There is only a small problem, during your stay there are faults in the lines that can take a long time to fix due to weather conditions. This means that you may be deprived of electricity and therefore the opportunity to use the equipment we told you about. Even if you have backups, you may be disconnected from the world for a while.” It seemed like they were a little excited. They leaned closer towards me. It was as if the words coming out of my mouth would determine their decisions.

A Place to Watch the World is a text that does not fit into any mold. Ertuğ Uçar uses fiction as well as detailed footnotes when describing the lighthouses he researched, both with his architectural knowledge and curiosity as a traveler, and as a writer. Oğuz Büktel accompanies this extraordinary text, which blends various literary genres such as documentary, travel, memoir and story, with his photographs.
