Written by award- winning author Feyza Hepçilingirler, As the red Carnation Fades tells the story of Sibel`s struggle to come to terms with herself as a wife, mother and teacher. The novel seamlessly interweaves stream of consciousness, childhood memories and dark comedy as it depicts the byzantine machinations of martial law and the conflicted internal journey of a woman who finds her strength as she takes the path of resitance and independence.
