I thought Emine Sevgi Odamar's "Life is a Caravanserai- Has two doors I came in one, I went out the other" was okay. The story itself is kind of interesting.... it's a series of stories told by a girl growing up in 1960's Turkey. There were some great little vignettes and there were others that were just kind of strange. The book moves along at a frenetic pace, leaping from story to story. It reminded me of listening to someone I know who has a hardcore drug habit... she talks in the exact same way. I had real trouble with the language at first.... I think that was due to translation issues not an attempt to keep the novel's voice. I stopped noticing it before I got halfway through, so either I adjusted or it got better as I went along. Overall, a middling rating from me. I'm not particularly inspired to read anything else by this author. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

"The author’s wonderful use of local narrative, storytelling, proverbs and prayers, and a prose that moves from the lyrical to gritty humour, re-creates this microcosm of neighbourhoods from a young girl’s intimate perspective."https://elifthereader.com/books/life-is-a-caravanserai-emine-sevgi-ozdamar/.
This book was both hard and easy to read. The lack of breaks between events and stories and no chapters makes it a bit hard but the actual reading moves along without problem. It is a memoir, distorted by the way a youth will see things but also filled with folklore and the way the author puts together sentences almost poetic. Coming of age: The story introduces us to the protagonist while she is a foetus and takes us to her decision to leave her family and go to Germany with the first wave of workers to Germany. The book was written in German.
