A NOVEL OF SPIRITUAL PURSUIT IN THE MODERN WORLD: BİRDENBİRE (SADIK YALSIZUÇANLAR)
Abstract
Sadık
Yalsızuçanlar, a prominent name among the latest Turkish story and novel
writers, was born in Malatya in 1962. After completing his primary education
and most of his secondary education in Malatya, he graduated from Dörtyol
Deneme High School in Hatay. Afterwards, he graduated from the Department of
Turkish Language and Literature at Hacettepe University in 1983. He retired from
his job as a civil servant in 2010, the title he gained as an assistant
producer for the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation (TRT) in 1987. His
first literary work was a story entitled “Ana” published in Yeni Asya Journal. His first published book was Şehirleri Süsleyen Yolcu (1986). His primary interest has been in
stories, but he has written various works such as novels, fables, researches,
reviews, essays, compilations, conversations and translations. A spiritual
maturation process based on Sufism constitutes the main theme of most of his
literary works. His novel, Birdenbire
(2012), is one of his works based on this theme. This novel tells about a boy,
Mustafa, who experienced his spiritual change and maturation process in his
inner world and his life story. What makes this novel different is the
narration of the life of a contemporary young who follows a spiritual path and
is interested in spiritual development. This paper examines the relation
between the novel's structural elements (narrator, time, place and characters)
and its thematic pattern. It also describes the literary treatment of spiritual
pursuit and maturation, the novel's main theme.
