Synopsis

In Turkish Reflections, Mary Settle offers us an intimate portrait of a Turkey rarely seen.

Settle explores an enchanting and historic land where the cutting of a tree is a crime, where goats are sacrificed to launch state-of-the-art ships, and where whole towns emerge at dusk to stroll in the streets.
