From the library
Ama geçen sonbahar, Moda'da boşaltılan eski bir evden aldığı iki koli kitap, bu sessiz koleksiyonu beklenmedik bir yöne çevirdi.
But last autumn two boxes of books he had bought from an old house being emptied in Moda turned this quiet collection in an unexpected direction.
Kolilerden çıkan bir atlasın, bir yemek kitabının, eski bir demiryolu tarifesinin ve ince bir şiir kitabının kenarlarında aynı el yazısı vardı: küçük, sağa yatık ve son derece düzenli.
In the margins of an atlas, a cookbook, an old railway timetable and a slim book of poems that came out of the boxes there was the same handwriting: small, slanting to the right and extremely neat.
