His story of “Avından El Alan” in the book Göçmüş Kediler Bahçesi; is the first of the total thirteen texts and it is an example of “frame narrative”, in which the stories take place in-between of other stories. The story consist of a "main narrative"; which is an inclusive narrative type, and "sub-narratives" that are thematically-overlapping and serve to improve the actions of “main narrative”.
