Tired Lands

CONTENT PROMOTION

The book you have, TIRED LAND, is neither the product of ordinary lives nor a fictional narrative. You will have a difficult journey in a terrain with oral history references and sociological and theological tragedies. You will come face to face with a social tragedy that occurred in a different and hidden time period. Sometimes you will read a documentary narrative, sometimes you will read sad narratives built on an objective life. The author will appeal to the brightness of your inner world through the language of the novel, by adhering to the lives lived in the past and without straying too far from what is happening. As the author states; “That inner light is man's true conscience. If the light darkens, one's interior turns into winding labyrinths and dark corridors. 'Conscience is God within man.' If you have killed God, then justice and humanity have faded within you.”

All these events take place in the land where writer Yusuf Baran Beyi lives. He also recognizes the color of the joy of the life lived in the past, and he also knows its pain and smell. With a feeling of empathy close enough to touch and embrace, it carries the hidden white-hot pains in its arms like the body of a dead baby, leaving what has happened to the light of the house within you. This book is a product of shining a projector on human landscapes; It will take you to both the Armenian deportation, the reflections of the massacre on the surrounding villages during the 1937-38 Dersim Massacre, and of course, the witness of sociological and theological events.
