Idle Years reviewed in The Times


We have just published Orhan Kemal's The Idle Years . Kemal is one of the greatest artists in Turkey's history and we have been proud to be the first publishers of his work in English. The first of q a few upcoming pieces on Kemal has appeared in The Times in their 'Classics' column. Written by Margaret Reynolds, it conveys the deceptive simplicity of Kemal's style and gives a nice precis of his legendary status. If you would like to know more about Orhan Kemal (and he is well worth discovering), look up the Orhan Kemal Museum in Istanbul
