The November 2024 selection of the NYRB Classics Book Club
A giant of modern Turkish literature, Ouz Atay remains largely untranslated into English. First published in 1975,Waiting for the Fearis Atay’s only collection of short stories, praised by the Nobel Prize winner Orhan Pamuk for having transformed the art of short fiction.
Atay’s stories are vivid with life’s absurdities and psychologically true to life, while his characters, oddballs and losers all, are utterly individual. A brilliant examiner of the inner life, Atay is no less aware of the flawed social world in which his people struggle to make their way, and he is exceptionally attuned to the strange power storytelling itself can exert over fate. In the title story, a nameless young man returns to his home on the outskirts of an enormous nameless city to discover that he has received a letter in a language he neither knows nor recognizesafter which, step by step, the inscrutable missive reshapes his world. In “Railroad Storytellers: A Dream,” a professional story peddler lives in a hut beside a train station in a country that is at warunless it isn’t. He can’t remember. What do such life and death realities matter, however, so long as there are stories to tell?
Ralph Hubbell’s fluent and vigorous English rendering of this key work of world literature is a revelation.
