Hoca - Baba - Amca - Ben

Teacher - Father - Uncle - Me Book Description One morning, while I was in the sweetest part of my sleep, the doorbell rang bitterly. Bülbül was one of those bells, I didn't like the family house in Aydın where I spent my childhood, because it reminded me of the unhappiness and poverty in that house, but I didn't dare to change it, after all, it was a bond with the past, for better or worse. I got up. I said he must be one of my roommates. He forgot his keys or something. I opened the door, the teacher, my father and my uncle were standing in front of me. They were shaking from alcohol at that hour of the morning. My father had a large suitcase in his hand. Hodja, Father, Uncle, Me brings together the stories written by Murat Uyurkulak between 2017-2020. The first chapter, which gives its name to the book, contains stories told through four characters. Three of these characters are alcoholics with various shades of opposition ranging from anarchist to communist. Proud, honest, poor, intellectual characters who you might call "losers" from the outside, but who never see themselves as losers, who have a lot to say about life, country, world and people. Despite everything, they are fun and at peace with themselves, with their raki, their conversations, their cities and their little love affairs. We read their thoughts and stories through the "I" character between them, who is "son, nephew and student". The second part, "Album of Peculiar Persons", includes interesting encounters, anecdotes and memories that cast their shadow or light on life, and touching portraits of various figures, some of whom are well known to readers, masterfully narrated.
