Curious stranger: notes about Turkish post-modernism

Abstract

Post-modernism in Turkish literature has managed to lose the effect of novelty, but for many people it remains rather a curious stranger as before. Its poetological passion is not clear and that`s why it is irritating. But at the same time it is unlike others and because of it, it attracts. The article considers the genesis of Turkish post-modernism, which became the leading direction in the country's literature since the middle of 1990-s.
