BIOGRAPHY

A successful novelist as well as an engineer, Mehmet Eroğlu in his novels explores the political complexities of characters living in a modernizing country beset with miscarriages of justice, coups, and conspiracies. In his first four novels Eroğlu deals with the 12 March 1971 military coup and its consequences; following his fifth novel, the third and the most devastating military coup of 12 September 1980 became the linchpin of his works. While political change provides the pulse of his novels, Eroğlu is also interested in the alienation of the apolitical and inactive generation that was created by the military coups. He deals with tragic themes such as death, love, sacrifice, and loneliness in an existentialist vein.

Mehmet Eroğlu was born on 2 August 1948 in Izmir, the city of Homer. Owing to the appointments of his father, Faik Eroğlu, who was a teacher of literature, he spent his childhood in several different cities, including Adana, Osmaniye, Aydın, Uşak, and Izmir.
