The Turkish translation was made by Ülkü Tamer. Faulkner's Red Leaves is one of his early and important short stories, set within the fictional world of Yoknapatawpha County and exploring the history, traditions and racial tensions of the American South. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe story centers on the death of a Choctaw Indian chief and the traditional pursuit of his servant, who is expected to follow his master into death. What begins as a seemingly ritualistic pursuit gradually reveals a much deeper portrait of an old social order, examining power, race, slavery, tradition and the relationship between the ruling class and those who serve it. Faulkner's fragmented and atmospheric storytelling gives the story a haunting quality while revealing the complicated history of the American South.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor collectors, this is an especially interesting early Turkish Faulkner edition. The 1959 publication is among the earliest translations of Faulkner into Turkish, following Duman (1952), and the translation by Ülkü Tamer represents an important moment in the author's reception in Turkey.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(170, 26, 23);\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchorContainer\"\u003e• Author: William Faulkner\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Original Title: Red Leaves\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Turkish Title: Kırmızı Yapraklar\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Publisher: Varlık Yayınları\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Publication Year: 1959\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Edition: First Edition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Language: Turkish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Translator: Ülkü Tamer\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Format: Pocketsize\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Genre: Short Story; American Literature; Literary Fiction\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Themes: Race; Slavery; Tradition; Power; Death; Social Hierarchy; American South\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Original Publication: 1930\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Collector Appeal: 1959 first Turkish edition of William Faulkner's Red Leaves, an early Turkish translation of the Nobel Prize-winning author's work and an appealing vintage collectible for Faulkner and classic American literature collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turkrex Collectables","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49983695847562,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/3687\/7450\/files\/1_2552d961-c390-4913-8c0c-bca002bd3713.jpg?v=1786616402","url":"https:\/\/turkrexcollectables.com\/products\/william-faulkner-red-leaves-1959-1st-turkish-book-turkey","provider":"Turkrex Collectables","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
