Turkish-English Short Story Collections edit
A series of five dual language (Turkish-English) short story collections by prominent Turkish short story writers was published in 2001 by Milet Publishers in co-operation with Haringey, Hackney and Islington Libraries Turkish Community Readers Development Project (funded by DCMS/Wolfson Public Libraries Challenge Fund).
The publisher describes the volumes as, “a series of unique and wonderful dual language books and audio cassettes for teenagers and adults that look at Turkish life from key angles – the familial, the social, the political.”[8]
Marion James, writing in Sunday's Zaman, commends the format of “English on one side of the page and Turkish on the other,” for “making them ideal for the upper-intermediate or advanced student of either language to improve their comprehension skills and vocabulary.”[9]
The series consists of the volumes;
- Füruzan (2001). A Summer Full of Love. trans. Damian Croft. ISBN 978-1-84059-301-3.[10]
