Everything Begins Where It Ends

All the works of Muzaffer Buyrukçu, the important name of our literature who passed away in 2006, are in Kırmızı Kedi. Buyrukçu, who won important literary awards such as Sait Faik, Yunus Nadi and Haldun Taner, has a mastery in telling the stories of workers and the unemployed, tramps and bullies, housewives and prostitutes, disabled and insane people, people who are not seen much in society and even in literature, using characters and stories he knows well. It lies in the fact that it is constructed in an extremely original style.

The stories in Everything Begins Where It Ends question the social problems that are still unsolved in our country, not only on a realistic or psychological basis, but also in an existential depth. It is noteworthy that in these first stories, we encounter a depth of criticism of sexism that we rarely encounter in male writers even today. These are sharp stories that we are not used to reading from the pen of a male writer in Turkish literature. Going beyond an ordinary system criticism, Buyrukçu questions human nature, the reasons why humans exploit humans, and the conditions that create them, from the very first story.

We begin Muzaffer Buyrukçu's collection with his stories.
