Europe in Women's Short Stories from Turkey

In the twenty-three short stories of this collection the reader encounters the tales of heroines from Turkey or of Turkish origin, roaming European cities. From the lustful tourist escaping the realities of her own world; to the abandoned wife writing to the consulate in complaint of her husband; the young au pair wandering the streets of London; the migrant worker in Berlin, toiling all day long at a factory; this book offers its readers an opportunity to discover the different ways in which Turkish women have experienced Europe, out of choice, fate and kismet.
