Translated from the Turkish by Thilda Kemal. 286 pages. hardcover. Cover: Salem Tamer. keywords: Literature Translated Turkey . FROM THE PUBLISHER - Each year when the wind brings the news to old Halil's keen senses that the cotton is ripe for picking in the Anatolian plain, the entire population of his remote village in the Taurus Mountains set out on the arduous trek to earn by their toil enough to buy the necessities of life for the bitter highland winter. This year Halil finds himself too old to go on foot; so does Long Ali's mother Meryemdje, and both clamor for a place on the back of her son's broken-down nag. Halil's determination to stay on and Meryemdje's to get him off lead to a war of words and cunning which brightens with comedy the sombre drama of the march. But when the animal dies and the group falls behind the rest of the villagers, it is Ali who has to bear the burden of reconciling love for his mother with compassion for the old rogue Halil, while pressing doggedly on to reach the cotton fields before they are picked bare. Within this narrative, Yashar Kemal evokes the simple passions of the true folk novel and evidences why he is considered the greatest living Turkish writer. inventory #31488 Mark From The Remains Of A Price Sticker On Both Top Corner Of Front Free Endpaper & On Front Endpaper, Otherwise Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket.

hardcover. 1st edition. London. 1973. Collins & Harvill. 1st British Edition. Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket With Some Small Tears & Small Pieces Missing. 000261507x. Translated from the Turkish by Margaret E. Platon. 412 pages. hardcover. . keywords: Literature Translated Turkey . FROM THE PUBLISHER - THEY BURN THE THISTLES is the story of a bitter war between the poor Turkish peasants of the Taurus Mountains of Anatolia and the greedy Aghas who covet their land and are prepared to go to any lengths including theft, arson and murder to get it. Ali Safa has determined to take possession of the village of Vayvay but its inhabitants will not sell, Then one named Hassan weakens, he is prepared to part with his few acres, though only in exchange for the Agha's best stallion, The deal is agreed but Ali Safa cannot forgive Hassan for having taken his much prized stallion and his men set fire to Hassan's house and stable, The horse escapes and Hassan is driven from the village. Ali Safa orders Adem, a crack shot, to pursue and kill the stallion who is now running wild, On the few occasions that Adem sees him, the stallion seems to be invulnerable to bullets, Adem loses his pride in his marksmanship and nearly his sanity; he begins to believe that the stallion must be under some supernatural protection. Parallel with the fate of the stallion is that of Slim Memed, a village boy who, as told in MEMED, MY HAWK, is the defender of the poor and the scourge of their oppressors. Having rid the country of a wicked Agha, he is now an outcast and, like the stallion, pursued by men who intend to kill him, The villagers did not have the heart to resist Ali Safa, but when they know that Memed is among them they take courage for he has become a legend. While hidden in a melon garden, recovering from a wound, doubts begin to assail Memed-was it of any use to kill a wicked Agha if one even more wicked succeeded him? He recovers his health and falls in love with the girl who has nursed him; his doubts vanish, The stallion, whose fate is so like his own, appears and becomes the mount on which he goes out with renewed faith to accomplish his destiny. The book has all the quality of a great epic, the lives of simple people are invested with grandeur and their problems are seen as those which confront all humanity. The writing is superb, not surprisingly, for Kemal's style has beep compared to that of Thomas Hardy and critics have described him as the first Turkish author to break the language barrier and become an international figure. inventory #32400 Very Good in Slightly Worn Dustjacket With Some Small Tears & Small Pieces Missing.
