The novel captures a deep personal loneliness that feels tied to broader cultural shifts. Did anyone else feel this made the story more poignant or relatable?

The protagonist’s apathy feels so specific, yet universal. I'm curious if Yusuf Atılgan drew from personal experiences or societal observations when creating him.

The story takes its time to delve into the protagonist’s inner world, which added to its somber tone. Do readers think this slow pace enhances the theme or hampers engagement?
