Little Agha

Küçük Ağa, during the years of the War of Independence, far from the centers of political decision and discussion, weighed the burden of whether or not to participate in the war started by people called Kuvvacı/Nationalists, but it was not well known what they were and what they represented. It describes people who have to make a decision. The dilemmas, stalemates and internal turmoil that the rural people, who lived for centuries with the knowledge and belief that they could fight only under the "caliph-i ruyi ground", the banner raised by the sultan, in the absence of the call of the caliph-sultan and as the news of the invasion spread, were forced to rethink about themselves and their destiny. is the story. In Tarik Bugra's own words, Küçük Ağa is a novel that tells reality, not an epic, even though it deals with a subject worthy of epics. It is a novel in which he is not the "hero" of the Unionists and Kuwvaists, but of a people who are alone with their legacy of faith and tradition, trying to decide for themselves and their future for the first time. Nowadays, reading Küçük Ağa means re-reading a story, a problem that has gained its currency once again.
