His unique experience of growing up in a remote village with no electricity, and having a talented storyteller for a mother, has provided perspective, inspiration and material for his writing.He has written for various newspapers and magazines, such as daily BirGün and L'Unita and monthly Birikim and "Notos", on literature, culture and politics.
