Описание: Shadow of the Rainbow is a debut novel that takes place in Barcelonas centre, a neighbourhood called el Raval. Raval is a controversial part of the city, as it has become popular recently, also famous for its immigrant residents. A girl called Serap, who has just moved to the barrio, gets herself locked out on the first night and has to meet the neighbours. Serap wants to write a novel but doesnt know what to write. She falls into the tunnel of writing as she gets more involved with the streets of el Raval and its residents.
Описание: Gecekondu settlements-or shanty towns-in large Turkish cities are mostly populated by low-income families, many of which have migrated from the villages of Central Anatolia. The rise of the Islamist party AKP in the 1990s and 2000s had a large impact on how these gecekondus are examined, and how they are perceived to reflect key issues at play in Turkish society: welfare, local identity, religious communities and the rise of civil society. Having lived in one of these neighbourhoods in Ankara, Burcu ?enturk's book sheds light on the experience of gecekondu dwelling in Turkey. By focusing on this aspect, she brings to the fore issues such as urbanisation, modernisation and development, as well as examining the impact these kinds of phenomena have on generation gaps and the role of women in Turkish society. By using the framework of the experience of three generations of gecekondu dwellers, ?enturk is able to chart the emergence, development and the gradual breakdown of social relations, and how the dynamics of these have changed during the course of the latter half of the twentieth century."
