Puff and Puff

Salah Birsel, the original name of Turkish literature and one of the pioneers of the essay genre, wrote the language in Paf ve Puf, With his style and storytelling, he once again demonstrates his familiar art.

In Salah Bey's writing, time, place, geography and boundaries disappear, opening the door to unknown anecdotes or well-known but never told information; the whole world travels. But since he is a thoughtful writer, he gives the reader a break from time to time without hesitation.

From Spanish colonies to Native Americans, from the analysis of detective novels and their characters to Ahmet Mithat Efendi's trip to Europe, from historical torture methods to Hitler's psychology, from the dethronement of Abdülaziz to Namik Kemal, Abdülhamit, Ziya Pasa, From Nef'i, Nevres, French socialists, Aztecs... Birsel leaves no geography or people untouched. As he wanders through the corridors of history and the secrets of literature and literary figures, the reader has no choice but to enjoy this modest but powerful narrative...
