Blue Smoke

"The page is white, the text on it is black; for better visibility.

""Blue Smoke,"" a collection of selected stories by Kemal Tuğan, tells the story of people—some readers, some writers—but each with their own troubles.

Through the eyes of a writer tracing the remnants of painful separations, joyful reunions, misshapen suitcases, and travelers who don't know where they're going...

From Kadıköy to Fatih, from a village square to a business lobby, from the gardens of tuberculosis patients to the tops of city walls, satire and sadness coexist in the same sentence; you feel sad without realizing you're laughing.

The blue smoke dissipates, leaving behind thoughts."
