Narrated by an author on vacation among the classical ruins of
the ancient city of Side on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey,
Summer’s End provides an intricate picture of a large cross-
section of modern Turkish society. The novel offers a complex
multi-dimensional and multi-leveled view of cultural values,
politics, sexuality, and personal dilemmas. It is one of the most
celebrated works by Adalet Ağaoğlu, widely considered to be
one of the principal novelists of our time.
“Summer’s End is an elegiac novel of attempted
reconciliation and consolation set in a lush and
delectable setting that intensifies the heartbreaking
contrast between life and death and society’s
fragmentation against nature’s organic unity.”
Prof. Sibel Erol
