Synopsis

Exile is a collection of short stories with the taste of a novel which won the author the 2011 European Prize for Literature. Dedicated to those who have been alienated from their homeland, from their families or from society, in this extraordinary collection Ilhan builds a patchwork of stories which highlight the lives of the dispossessed. As a woman writing in modern day Turkey, she is not afraid to take on the themes of honour killings or the American occupation of Iraq, pouring her empathy and understanding into narratives that we usually only hear about through news reports and cold statistics.
