Description

On a tense June evening in 1980 Turkey, the city tightens under the weight of revolution, rumor, and an approaching military crackdown. As martial law takes hold and a curfew begins at 2 a.m., a small circle of characters—caught in the ordinary routines of home, work, and love—find their lives suddenly governed by fear, surveillance, and sudden moral choices. Through their intersecting perspectives, the novel captures how political violence reshapes private spaces and turns time itself into a weapon. With Adalet Ağaoğlu’s incisive, psychologically sharp style, *Curfew* explores the fragility of freedom, the cost of complicity, and the human need to remain fully alive even when the world insists on silence.
