Bizim İnce Kızlar

In his stories, Fakir Baykurt deals with problems such as the harshness of village life, poverty, ignorance, bigotry, superstition and exploitation, and deals with the material and spiritual world of the villagers from a socialist and realistic perspective. Based on observations and live testimonies, the author occasionally uses a humorous language by bringing daily spoken language into the story; It strikingly depicts the "ordinary person" who is stuck between the wheels of bureaucracy but also harbors hope, together with the atmosphere of the place he lives in.

We are bringing together Our Thin Girls, which was first published in 1993, with the readers again: In the new era, women in Duisburg have plunged headlong into jobs that were until now considered "men's work". They have been driving buses and trams for a year or two. I turn my head and look at the front, where the driver sits. A thin, tall, sapling-tall person is standing next to him. They are talking. There are always hops on and off. The tram is always full. Workers and workers' children are trying to get from one place to another. Today, among all the sounds, I always choose Turkish for some reason. But I can't find that sweet voice that impresses me. I will be mad. My path ends; I need to get off at a place called Sigir Kapisi. I am sad; Feeling defeated, I walk towards the front door. Right next to me, he said, "Wow, you did a great job, Emine!" someone says: "At the end of this year, I will start working like you. If you ask why, school is over now! I need to find a job no matter what..."
