‘The Wren’ staged in Turkey’s Black Sea
‘The Wren’ staged in Turkey’s Black Sea
Renowned Turkish novelist Reşat Nuri Güntekin’s famous work “Çalıkuşu” (The Wren) was performed by the Samsun State Opera and Ballet.
“The Wren” is about the destiny of a young Turkish female teacher named Feride.
The events in the novel take place in the early 20th century, in a war-weary Ottoman Empire that is about to collapse.
Most of the novel is narrated in the first person point-of-view by Feride.
In the first section, Feride narrates her childhood and the events that brought her to the alien hotel room which she indicates she is in.
The second and largest section of the book is made up of Feride’s diary entries.
The third section is the only one written from the third person point-of-view and recounts the events during Feride’s visit to her family.
