Tanrıya Şikayet

"Great God, have mercy on our situation! Now is not the time to be busy with the affairs of 'Heaven' and 'Hell', where you will accept us one day. We are in the middle of July; this is already a troublesome month. With the new expression - you are a scholar, of course you know its meaning - We need a radical order.... If you don't do this, I think we will pile up dynamite, gas and bombs on the ground, in the sky and in the sea, and soon we will turn our sphere into a comet and attack your stars, perhaps directly. We were so horny, God forbid, of course you know!”

Complaint to God is about the years of World War II, when human life was disregarded, progress under the name of modernization was actually mechanization, and these machines turned into tools of massacre. Refik Halid Karay offers his readers a true example of black humor with his satirical pen and his success in approaching tragic events with humor.
