Description
Asya and Manu envision their future in a foreign city, searching for the traditions and rituals to establish together. As they explore new possibilities, Asya, a documentary filmmaker, observes the neighbourhood park, gathering footage to understand how people really live. Her grandmother's words echo in her mind: 'Forget about daily life, no one cares about that.' Meanwhile, life in their respective home countries continues, with parents ageing, grandparents getting sick, and nieces and nephews growing up, all just beyond their reach. This soulful exploration of home-building and modern love unfolds over apartment viewings, late-night conversations, and lazy breakfasts, written with Aysegül Savas' distinctive elegance, warmth, and humour. The Anthropologists is a thoughtful examination of the choices we make and the relationships we form. As Asya and Manu navigate their new life, they must decide what to hold onto and what to release. With its acute portrait of modern life and love, this novel is a meditation on the complexities of human connection. Aysegül Savas' prose is both elegant and intimate, offering a nuanced understanding of the human experience.
