In Memory of Fethi Naci

The relationship between Yaşar Kemal and Fethi Naci is one that is rarely encountered between a novelist and a critic. In addition to friendship, we see that the critic has followed the great novelist step by step from his first works (for example, Teneke) and has written about each of his novels (not always in praise). If Fethi Naci had a novelist, it is undoubtedly Yaşar Kemal. Of Yaşar Kemal, the one Fethi Naci wrote about the most,

Fethi Naci and Ferit Edgü met at a very young age (when Naci was 27 and Edgü was 18) and their friendship lasted until Fethi Naci's death. This friendship was not a writer-critic friendship, but a friendship shared over books, alcohol, Bodrum, and the blue sea. Fethi Naci wrote many articles about Ferit Edgü and his writings. The first article Ferit Edgü wrote for Fethi Naci (I See Fethi Naci) was written for the book In Honor of Fethi Naci, published by Oğlak Publications under the editorship of Semih Gümüş on the occasion of the famous critic's seventieth birthday (1997).

The “1950 Generation” is the symbol of a newness and a radical change in Turkish literature. The writers of this generation, who opposed village literature and the realistic art perception of a shallow society, created a brand new language and each developed their own personal style. We present the signed books and handwritten poems, stories and texts of seven story writers and one poet, four of whom are no longer with us, from the “50 Generation”, half a century has passed since they published their first books, so as not to separate them from each other.

The great master of Turkish poetry, İlhan Berk, was a close friend of painters throughout his life, wrote poems and articles about many of them, and when the time came, he himself took up brushes and paints and made paintings. This poet-painter, who took the female body as his subject in almost all of his paintings, drew and painted it in different positions in a style unique to himself, and these are 32 signed paintings in different techniques, in color and black and white, on the pages of a velvet-bound geomancy notebook dating back to the 18th century.

b) 11 postcards written to the Dinos The friendship between Abidin Dino and Fikret Muallâ began at a very early age. Abidin helped Fikret Muallâ, who was eight years older than him, whenever he got into trouble, both in Turkey and France, and saved this incorrigible anarchist bohemian from the hands of the police, and could be said to be his only savior in mental hospitals. Fikret Muallâ sheds such light on his friend’s life and art in his book For the Seeing Eye, which he wrote after Fikret Muallâ’s death. This book, which has no precedent in our country’s art literature and was printed under the limited conditions of the period in which it was published, was later reprinted. Here, the first edition of the book is accompanied by 11 postcards that Fikret Muallâ wrote to the Dinos from the south of France between 1959 and 1962. (See Fikret Mualla: Letters to Friends, YKY 1995, pp. 63 - 82).
