The never-ending fight to bring freedom of the press, freedom of speech, and freedom to simply live a life where one can attain peace, without fear of tomorrow, lies at the very core of this monumental tour de force, a gargantuan buffet for those who gorge on historical fiction. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHere, the reader endures the agony of shattering defeats, the depths of tragically lost love, and the lowest level to which human depravity can descend, yet ultimately celebrates the triumph of the human spirit as the three protagonists of this epic fight to bring about \u003ci\u003etikkun olam\u003c\/i\u003e, the repair of a world in chaos. Above all, this is a \u003ci\u003eCOMING OF AGE\u003c\/i\u003e story: the coming of age of Modern Turkey. If humankind does not learn from the lessons of the past, we are doomed to repeat them over and over, into eternity. This tale is as ancient as our history, yet as immediate as tomorrow. Like \u003ci\u003eFiddler on the Roof\u003c\/i\u003e, its universality crosses every border and is common to every culture. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAnd as you come to the end of this mammoth tale, you find yourself reading slower and slower, hoping it does not come to an end, hoping there will be more to this story. And who knows, perhaps one day there will be a sequel ... and another ... and another. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is clearly \u003ci\u003eHugo N.
