        Like a Sword Wound

        by Ahmet Altan

        Volume 1 of the Ottoman Quartet A powerful, beautifully written saga set during the fall of one of history’s greatest empires. Altan’s “Ottoman Quartet” spans the fifty years between the final decades of the 19th century and the post-WWI rise of Atatürk as both the unchallenged leader and visionary reformer of the new Turkey. The quartet tells the gripping stories of an unforgettable cast of characters: an Ottoman army officer, the Sultan’s personal doctor, a scion of the royal house whose Western education brings him into conflict with his family’s legacy, and a beguiling Turkish aristocrat who, while fond of her emancipated life in Paris, finds herself drawn to a conservative Muslim spiritual leader. Intrigue, betrayal, love, war, progress, and tradition provide a colourful backdrop against which the lives of these characters play out. All the while, the society that spawned them is transforming and the Sublime Empire disintegrating. Here is a Turkish saga reminiscent of War and Peace, written in lively, contemporary prose that traces not only the social currents of the time but also the erotic and emotional lives of its characters. Altan is a fearless, caustic writer, who is not afraid to hide in plain sight a critique against arrogant, anti-democratic leadership that exploits religion and bigotry, letting the reader hear in this historical novels an echo of Turkey’s contemporary politics.

        Mi chiamo Nako

        by Guia Risari, Paolo D’Altan (illustrator)

        The book is a small masterpiece of literary and figurative art. The drawings, realized by Paolo D’Altan, a true master of illustration, and the text, poetic, scratchy and delicate at the same time, make the story of Nako - a Roma child - a story on which young and old can confront each other on worlds other than their own. Worlds more judged than really known. What Nako says highlights the dreams and sufferings of those who experience distances and exclusion every day, but at the same time opens the curtain on ancient traditions, languages and hopes. For those who believe in authentic life and the value of differences, the book is a social and cultural adventure to live.
