^#smrgSAHAF Please No Police: A Novela - 1992

This novella is about the large expatriate community of Turks living in Germany. Aras Ören tells the story of individual Turks and Berliners caught up in the kinds of misunderstandings that can create a clash of cultures. The experiences of the characters are often humorous, but their weaknesses and fears, their search for hope and dignity render them only too familiar and at the same time profoundly tragic.
