Özet
'4 Hane 1 Teslim / 4 Sections, 1 Transition (2016),' which is the first novel by Eyup Aygun Taysir, captures attention with its ambitious and rich content and its style, which represents magical realism. The novel talks about the predicaments, conflicts, and contradictions of two families that are settled in Fethiye (Turkey), Germany, Siirt (Turkey) and Istanbul (Turkey) and that are vulnerable to the ebbs and flows of living between East and West. What these two families have in common are conflicts between fathers and sons on the basis of the search for identity and the migration of both families from East to West. Sabri, who questions himself, his past and his family on behalf of all fathers and sons serving as personalities in the novel, and who develops responses in the form of a synthesis, acts as if he assumed the narration of the story with his literary personality on behalf of the author. Just as the matter of fathers and sons is within the scope of psychoanalysis, specifically the Oedipus complex theory proposed by Sigmund Freud, it is also closely and symbolically related to the East-West conflict in Turkish literature. Therefore, the struggle of sons to outperform their fathers is also well-suited to psychoanalytical studies. In the context of these conflicts, the relationship of Agah and his son Baki Naim, who are forced to migrate to Germany, and the relationship of Baki Naim and his son Sabri gain attention in the novel. Through representative places and lives, the author addresses the relationship of father and son in parallel to the East-West conflict/dilemma. Siirt Teneke (Tin) Quarter and the squatter house, which represent the East, and Germany, Fethiye and the apartment, which symbolize the West, come to the fore as elements enabling the acquisition of identity and as settings for conflict. In this study, the effects of places on identity acquisition and culture, as well as the implications of places on conflicts between fathers and sons, conflicts between East and West and power will be examined.
