The Interpretation of Iskender Pala’s Aksam Yıldızı

Firstly, before examination of the book, I would you like to introduce Iskender Pala to you. He is a Turkish Divan Poetry professor and author and writes poetries as well as historical novels. He is sort of making imaginery in his own works. Because İskender Pala is an orginal writer, when you read only 5–10 pages of İskender Pala’s books, you may predict the author of the novel.

I have recently read a few novels, are called Shah and Sultan, A Yunus Novel, A Barbaros Novel, Leyla and Mecnun, Itiraf and Akşam Yıldızı by written Iskender Pala. The author’s each novel includes Turkish history . I highly recommend these books to you. In this my writting, I’m going to tell you about Akşam Yıldızı Novel, is aboıt Göbeklitepe. Have ever you heard Gobeklitepe? İf you heard, you might know to be the world’s first temple. Six miles from Urfa, an ancient city in southeastern Turkey, Every year, many tourist that come around the world visit there. I suggest to you go to Göbeklitepe if you have time and oppurtinity. This book is about Göbeklitepe .If we examine the book; Göbeklitepe novel also includes history. Although fiction is a bit simpler than other novels, it is a very beautiful work. The author has explained a very important period of time. As the author appreciates the presentation; There is not much information about those times, and yet humans are living primitive. So this can happen with the information obtained. As a result, the book tells about an important time and place (göbeklitepe) and also love. İskender Pala has presented a novel with such limited knowledge. Books that teach and make you feel while reading.

Definitely a book to read.
