“Reality Bites!”–an İTEF 2013-İstanbul Tanpınar Edebiyat Festival panel

Hikmet Hükümenoğlu, Nicholas Patnaude, Teresa Präauer moderated by Feyza Howell

Reality; you can’t live with it you can’t live without it. There are many ways to imitate it, to represent it, to reflect it, to manipulate it – but are there ways to tame it? Literature is capable of doing many things to “reality” and some stories suggest “insanity” as a way of taming it. A good story often challenges the reader to experience an alternate reality, sometimes by opening a door to a parallel universe, other times by descending into the depths of horror or by teaching you how to fly away.
