Description
Broken Lives - Red Cat Classics Book Description Broken Lives is one of the remarkable works of Halid Ziya Uşaklıgil, who gave the most qualified first examples of the Western style novel in our literature. Married, father of two daughters and devoted to his family, doctor Ömer Behiç falls under the charm of Neyyir, the daughter of one of the polite families of the time. While Ömer Behiç struggles between his peaceful family and his forbidden relationship, he sees his little daughter Leyla's death from meningitis as a divine warning and ends this secret relationship. He returns to his beloved wife Vedide and his home. In his novel, Halid Ziya writes one of the social criticisms of the period by telling the story of other secondary "broken lives" in parts. Let me do it. There would only be life in this. A picture of the real life of the country, in which there is no trace of ornaments that will distract the eyes or reward the imagination. A story in the style that Balzac, Stendhal, and Bourget resorted to, so that while noting the reputations of these masters, it does not have the audacity to catch up with them, but in its own way, in its own way, it is a modest example of that genre.” Halid Ziya Uşaklıgil (From the Promotional Bulletin)
