Summary
This volume presents the literary careers of thirty-three Turkish novelists who have published significant work since the coup of 27 May 1960. These novelists embraced the challenges that came with the transformation of the country since that first military intervention disrupted the stability of the modern Republic of Turkey and have addressed Turkey's many evolving social and political issues through their works.
