Drop Drop Days 1

"There is nothing more instructive for a writer than the act of writing."
Andre Gide, one of the most important names of the diary genre, says that literary diaries are portraits, stories, memoirs and history writings. Adalet Agaoglu does exactly this in the first volume of Damla Dropla Günler, one of the monumental diaries of Turkish literature. Political conditions of the period, portraits of literary figures, trips, historical anecdotes, TRT years, conflicts, great joys, sorrows, sorrows... We follow our author step by step on the path from "playwright" Adalet Ağaoğlu to "novelist" Adalet Ağaoğlu. Moreover, these diaries do not only belong to Turkish literature. Drop Drop Days is a very important diary belonging to the great world narrative, in which we read all the interests, curiosities, analyses, and world view of an intellectual writer in every aspect.

"My shirt doesn't come off. I put the book [Lying to Die] on my bed and read it non-stop. How strange, a play that was written and performed would end immediately after it was staged. It would leave me. This never ends. Every time I look at it, I find either a typing error or my own mistakes." "I'm terrified if someone reads it. (If you didn't want it to be read, why did you bother to have it published?) I wanted him to get away from me."
