Turkish Bookshelf: The History of a Madhouse by Ayfer Tunc

Join us for Yunus Emre Enstitüsü – London’s very own book club Turkish Bookshelf! During our monthly gatherings we will explore Turkish books that have been translated to English on a journey through Türkiye’s rich literary landscape. This month we will embark on a journey around the world as we read The Highly Unreliable Account of the History of a Madhouse by Ayfer Tunç, a literary palimpsest of Türkiye that defies spatial and temporal boundaries.

To order a book you can do so using the following links:

📚 https://istrosbooks.com/product/history-of-a-madhouse/

📚https://www.amazon.co.uk/Highly-Unreliable-Account-History-Madhouse/dp/1912545071

Our evening will commence at 6:30pm and continue until 8:30pm, and will take place on the first Friday of every month.

Although it is preferred that you have read the book, our discussions will be accessible to everyone. With the help of our skilled moderator, we aim to provide a comfortable space for you all to unwind and relax at the end of the week.

We look forward to welcoming you to Yunus Emre Enstitüsü – London for an evening of meaningful discussion.
