Koca, Nazli

Koca’s unflinching debut is reflective, radical, and brave. Recommended for those interested in literary fiction portraying contemporary artists’ lives and the gritty realities of immigration experiences.

Excellently written, this first work presents Leyla as an authentic individual who will not easily be forgotten, and exquisitely explores the frustrations and insights of an inquiring mind sorting out past history, boyfriends and lovers, dreams and reality. Fans of Azareen Van der Vliet Oloomi’s Call Me Zebra will appreciate.
