CEVDET EREK, AYSE EREK.
Çin: 57th International Art Exhibition. La Biennale di Venezia. Pavilion of Turkey.= 57. Uluslararasi Sanat Sergisi. La Biennale di Venezia. Türkiye Pavyonu. [Exhibition catalogue].
New English Original bdg. HC. Folio. (33 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 188, [4] p., color and b/w photos. Çin. 57th International Art Exhibition, La Biennale di Venezia. Photos by Ali Kabas. Edited by Erim Serifoglu. CIN, a new work by Cevdet Erek, was presented in the Pavilion of Turkey at the 57th Venice Biennale, from May 13 through November 26, 2017. About his new work Cevdet Erek said: "Instead of trying to describe a work that is meant to be experienced on-site, and is still in the phase of formation, I propose to imagine a scene together as an exercise: there is a fenced ruin in the distance with a guard inside of it who should not leave during the day. The guard, while walking in silence, notices a visitor who carefully peeks around and the concert of thousands of crickets thanks to the visitor. This duo who try to talk to each other at a distance, briefly cry out at the same time from the ear pain caused by a violent noise that occurs out of the blue. Then, at night, in another place as the guard tries to suppress the ringing in her ears by opening the window two fingerbreadths and the noise a notch, enters an alarm sound: 'viyuviyuviyuviyu.' Then she tries to imagine again in the same order by going back to the beginning.".

ARA GÜLER.
Papelonen verç bidi abrink. [Album of photographs]. [ARMENIAN EDITION].
New Armenian Original bdg. HC. 4to. (29 x 23 cm). Edition in Armenian. 144 p., b/w photos. Papelonen verç bidi abrink. [Album of photographs]. [ARMENIAN EDITION]. This book brings together the short stories Ara Güler penned during his early period, and his photographs. Güler is known internationally as a photographer and considered the most important representative of creative photography in Turkey, however, he is a relative unknown as a short story writer, and the various aspects of Güler the writer appear in breathtaking range in We Will Live After Babylon. This new edition of three simultaneously published volumes in Turkish, Armenian and English, brings together Güler's visual production with his texts, who appear to also take photographs through the medium of the short story, to form a "photograph-short story album". Güler thinks that his early period short stories have an important role in his ability to "capture meaningful moments and combine them in a narrative", and describes these 13 short stories as "a kind of photography". There is no doubt that Güler is a "man of the visual world" and We Will Live After Babylon is a solid proof of that.

EMIR RAZ FUNES.
The route of Dor Nassia and other stories. Designed by Savas Çekiç. Edited by Michael Conduit.
New English Paperback. Foolscap 8vo. (19 x 12 cm). In English. 128 p., ills. The route of Dor Nassia and other stories. Designed by Savas Çekiç. Edited by Michael Conduit. These great, primordial creatures, too old even for simple comprehension, screamed in their final, fading moments, the ululation of their death-throes oscillating across the ears of all those who ran, like the young Denis Ardeyevich. Hauntingly, they creaked and heaved, as they, one-by-one, succumbed to the raging fires.". It is a world gone mad. A boy sits upon the imperial throne of Aravarnia, juggling to the fiddle of an immortal sorcerer. In his vision, the Continent convulses; Civil war rages in Khorat, as brother kills brother across the snowy steppes. Armies clash and shatter. Hamlets and cities burn. Pallid children starve within their charred, skeletal wrecks. Khorat bleeds. The Aravarnians march forward, fuelled by Imperial ambition. Banners held aloft, their well-trained armies cross the Ekaterin, into the war-torn fray. The Rebelling Duke, Prestor Volunoff, relents, and retaliates. His forces counter Aravarnia before the city of Dor Nassia. They lose. In a legendary fit of embers and smoke. It is a spectacular victory. Yet great moments are as dull as they get: boring, annoyingly heroic. Unabashedly exaggerated, and filled to its corpulent brim with hyperboles galore. This is not the story of that great victory. This, is the story of what came after.
