The armistice period, which includes the process of struggle leading up to the actual collapse of the Ottoman Empire and the establishment of the Turkish Republic, is also one of the topics often covered in the Turkish novel with its wide expansions. Peyami Safa, whose childhood and youth coincided with the last years of the Ottoman Empire, brought up the first World War and the National Struggle process that he personally witnessed from his first writings in his novels Sözde Kızlar (1923), Şimşek (1923), Mahşer (1924), Bir Akşamdı (1924) and Biz İnsanlar (1959). He also treated the different side of the struggle in the background rather than the front line, taking advantage of the possibilities of the novel language. Although his attitude away from the war environment has been criticised by critics from time to time, the assessment of the war environment in the novels in wide dimensions and with different expansions is qualified to make these criticisms unfair. In this study, Peyami Safa's first novel Sözde Kızlar and his last novel Biz İnsanlar, will be considered, and how the National Struggle corresponds in civil life and social relations, and with what sensitivities it is processed. It will also be discussed whether the social and political transformation that took place between the writing dates of both novels changed the author's view of the National Struggle.
