Küçük Adam Orhan Kemal Avare Yıllar Ben Öteki Ötekinin Yüzü etik
In this study, Orhan Kemal’s novel Avare Yıllar, which is the second novel of the Little Man’s Novel series, will be examined in the context of the concept of the ‘other’, which is seen as a positive value with its characteristics defining the limits of the self. In the novel Avare Yıllar, which is a continuation of the novel Baba Evi, the other stands out with its aspect that gives meaning to the existence of the protagonist and steers him toward a purpose. In the universe where the protagonist lives as a wanderer and makes himself move around as a wanderer, he is constantly in an emptiness, existentially absence, because he could not lead the self into an ontological purpose. However, after the acquaintance of Izzet Usta, who is the other face of him, the protagonist has had a certain purpose and tried to give meaning to his existence. In this context, we see that the protagonist of the novel "Avare Yıllar" grasps the existential sense of self after his meeting/encounter with the face of the other. In this regard, this study will focus on the role of Izzet Usta/the other, a new face that the Little Man encountered in the stage of self-discovery and formation, and it will also dwell on the importance of this role in reading the world adventure of the self and creating ethical value for the other in the novel.
