Zehra - In Contemporary Turkish

Zehra is one of the novels that best reflects the basic dynamics of Tanzimat literature. It realistically reflects the social texture, male-female relations and moral codes valid at that time around the themes of jealousy, love and betrayal. As readers, we travel with the heroes in Beyoğlu, Kağıthane, Büyükdere and Rumelifeneri and have the opportunity to breathe the air of those districts. The unique observations he conveys about social phenomena such as the Şehzadebaşı theater life of the period, the world of the tulumba players or the murder investigation are among the details that make this work very valuable. Our talented writer Nabizade Nâzım, who we lost at a young age, offers us the opportunity to make a wonderful literary journey to 1894 Istanbul with Zehra's fluent story and realistic observations.
