Dağlar Kendini Seveni Sever

With Mountains Love Those Who Love Himself, Fatoş Güney discusses Yılmaz Güney, a versatile artist, and his effects on his own life. He gives the reader a completely different perspective with his interviews published in the country's important newspapers and magazines, his answers to some taunts, and his speeches in various places.

Mountains Love Those Who Love Himself is also a document of love lived through difficulties. In this book, we also see that for Fatoş Güney, Yılmaz Güney was more than a husband, but a comrade, struggle partner and guide. The struggle against the injustices experienced by a rare artist, not only during his lifetime but also after his death, is very important for our recent history. And it is a sign of a completely different solidarity.

Fatoş Güney, who was closest to Yılmaz Güney, an important artist who made a name for himself in world cinema, for years, presents the unknown to the reader without hesitation in this book.

“I have always been happy with Yılmaz. I think, it is a very difficult thing to explain and express, but the days when I was happiest were maybe the days when Yılmaz was in prison. In other words, it was the communication between me and him behind bars... A relationship that was nourished by letters, enriched, deepened by visits and reinforced by the pain of those days... This process went on like this for ten years..."
