A Strange Woman - Paperback
by Leylâ Erbil (Author), Nermin Menemencioğlu (Translator), Amy Marie Spangler (Translator)
In English at last, Leylâ Erbil's earth-shattering, feminist debut: the first novel by a Turkish woman to ever be nominated for the Nobel.
One of the most influential Turkish writers of the 20th century, Leylâ Erbil was an innovative literary stylist who tackled issues at the heart of what it means to be human, in mind and body. Erbil ventured where few writers dared to tread, turning her lens to the tides of social norms and the shaping of identities, focusing intently on emotional conflict, and plumbing the depths of history and psyche. In 2002 and 2004 Erbil was nominated as candidate for the Nobel Literature Prize by Turkey PEN. She died in Istanbul in 2013.
