EXISTENTIALIST AWAKENING’S CALL TO THE SELF IN FERIT EDGU’S SHORT SHORT STORY NAMED “LIGHT”
Journal Title: The Journal of International Social Research - Year 2016, Vol 9, Issue 42
Abstract
Ferit Edgü, one of the most significant names of our contemporary literature, expresses himself with his writings. Edgü, writing in almost every genre in literature such as novel, short-story, poetry, translation and critiques, gives humanity, who is the main focus of the era, together with themes like loneliness, miscommunication, and homelessness. This intellectual conscious trying to find remedies for the wounded soul of the era is in quest of revising the existentialist concerns of the individual in his minimal stories. Thus we may conclude Edgü’s narrative venture is the ultimate salvation of the captive spirit of the era from the blinding light of reality.
