İnce Memed 1 (İnce Memed #1) 
Kind of like Robin Hood, if Robin Hood were a badass Turkish brigand riding to the rescue of Taurus Mountain villagers. Good stuff, and great writing to boot.
Mehmeds story begins with his fantastic love and his youngness. Than his life changes. Apart from many good things, story also explains about grudge and hatred inside the people who lives that time in Anatolia especially in the who against to Aga or any authority power. Unfortunately, the story seems us the people how can be such a weak kneed.Two sections from book, Evaluate people with their behavior not their words.Dont misprize your enemy even if It is an antI liked this book, recommended.

Once Upon a Time in TurkeyDown in that fertile part of southern Anatolia called the Chukurova, where crops yielded forty-fold and deer, birds, and beetles throve, the feudal landlords, who owned entire villages, oppressed the peasants mightily. They took whatever share of the crops they desired and could beat the villagers on any whim, or even drive them from their homes. Justice was an undreamt-of luxury. For rebels, or for those who had incurred the landlords' wrath, the only
İt was so emotional.
There's a fantastic review of Absurdistan I once read that said:Just unbutton its shirt and let it bare its chest. Like a victorious wrestler, this novel is so immodestly vigorous, so burstingly sure of its barbaric excellence, that simply by breathing, sweating and standing upright it exalts itself.And yeah, I think that applies to Memed, My Hawk a whole lot more than it applies to Shteyngart's work. It's rare when you can write a classical legend in 1955. It's a John Ford Western except that
Although this book is about Anatolian culture and socio-economic environment in Turkish countryside during the 1930s, its message - which is mainly about the struggle between the oppressed and the oppressor - is, unfortunately, universal and timeless. Words will not do justice describing this book. And if I had those words; I would be Yaşar Kemal. So I think that every person should take her own journey through this masterpiece and discover the beauty of it by herself. This delightful piece of

Otuz iki yıllık bir zaman diliminde yazılan İnce Memed dörtlüsü düzene başkaldıran Memed'in ve insan ilişkileri, doğası ve renkleriyle Çukurova'nın öyküsüdür. Yaşar Kemal'in söyleyişiyle 'içinde başkaldırma kurduysa doğmuş' bir insanın, 'mecbur adam'ın romanı. Abdi Ağa'nın zulmüyle köyünü terk etmek zorunda kalan Memed, Ağa'nın yeğeniyle evlendirilmek üzere olan Hatçe'yi kaçırır. Abdi Ağa'yı yaralayan, yeğenini de öldüren Memed eşkıya Deli Durdu'ya katılır, ancak kıyıcılığına katlanamadığı Deli Durdu'dan iki arkadaşıyla birlikte ayrılır. Memed, sıradan bir köy çocuğuyken, zulmedenler için eşkıyaya, köylüler içinse bir kurtarıcıya dönüşür. "Bir yaşam biçimini bir halkın portresi olarak böylesine veren bu romandan daha iyisi yazılamazdı." - The New York Times Book Review, (A.B.D.) "Şaşırtıcı, orijinal bir kitap." - Sunday Times, (İngiltere) "Epik boyutlara ulaşan ve muhteşem bir sona ulaşmak için hız kazanan öyküye kendinizi kaptırıyorsunuz." - Sunday Times, (İngiltere) 'Yaşar Kemal, şaşılacak ölçüde yaratıcı' -The Booksell, (İngiltere) 'Yaşar Kemal, karakterlerini unutulmaz, seçkin ve gerçek hayattan daha da gerçekçi kılan detay zenginliği ile Rus Edebiyatının kalitesine ulaşıyor.'Specify Books As İnce Memed 1 (İnce Memed #1)

This book is written in the style of a folk tale: as a series of events and adventures. Within those parameters it works very well, but it is very much a 'show not tell' style and lacking in emotional depth. (You know what people do, but very little about what they feel.)The descriptions of lives and places are detailed and easy to imagine, even if you have never seen anything of rural Turkey.The book is worth reading for the way of life it depicts and the story, just don't expect introspection.Kind of like Robin Hood, if Robin Hood were a badass Turkish brigand riding to the rescue of Taurus Mountain villagers. Good stuff, and great writing to boot.
