Does Thinking Hurt?

We know the author of this book mostly from the television screen. Mengü was someone who did not mince words, spoke frankly, and tried to do justice to the tradition of journalism. Here, in this book, he actually does all of these things together: He doesn't mince his words, he speaks directly to most of the people he talks about in the book and to his readers, and he tries to do justice to the journalistic tradition.

What happens if a young reporter goes to Iran in 2009? Moreover, what would happen if Nevsin Mengü, a young reporter, went to Iran in 2009? He works as a journalist and records what he sees, feels and experiences. Thus, this “narrative” emerges.

Does it hurt to think? A book of sensitive times. A first book that looks at the neighboring country from a journalist of a country that has almost ordinaryized sensitive times.

“After all, the good guys lost again in Iran. Isn't it always like this around here lately..."
