The Last Island
A retired General - the leader of the latest military takeover - moves to a peaceful island and decides to rid it of what he sees as its last remaining 'anarchic' components. The island, described by its people as a utopia, the last peaceful resort for mankind, morphs into dystopia when the General, in the hope of bringing order to the island life, begins to act more and more like a dictator. The first ones to revolt against the General are the seagulls. Originally written in 2008 as a condemnation of the authoritarian Turkish regime, The Last Island has only grown more relevant, foreshadowing the events and aftermath of Istanbul's bloody Gezi Park/Taksim Square political protests of 2013, as well as the protest movements of our time. Story Locale: Island near Turkey 'Human nature and authority come face to face in Livaneli's unparalleled, creative novel. The author invites us to rethink the world we live in.' - Lenore Martin, Emmanuel College and Harvard University 'With this novel Livaneli has entered through the grand gates of literature.'
