Reviews

The review singles out the book's third chapter — its examination of period press coverage before and after Kanlı Pazar — as its most striking contribution to understanding the political atmosphere of 1960s Turkey.

The segment describes the book as the first comprehensive, documented treatment of Kanlı Pazar, filling a long-standing gap in the literature.

Alpman recommends the book warmly, calling it a good place to start for anyone interested in Turkey's recent history.

The program's introduction describes the book as an objective treatment of one of the darker episodes in Turkey's recent history, and a valuable resource for understanding the present through Kanlı Pazar.

BirGün's report on the book — which recounts an attack by Islamists on revolutionaries protesting the United States — quotes Eren's assessment that the perpetrators are, in his words, "in power today."
