Zamansiz [Timeless] - Engin's second collection of stories
Engin’s second book is another collection of his short stories.
On May 22, 2023, a leak featuring the book cover appeared, and on May 23, Engin posted several photos on his Instagram account along with the following message:
"After a long time, here is my second book of short stories, Zamansız.
Perhaps the experiences of painful events took a long pause, but I wanted to share this book so that we know, despite everything, we still carry a desire to live in a world full of hope and to savor that feeling."
My endless thanks go to:
Idil Hafızoğlu and Yasin Öksüz from Kafasına Göre, who always accompany me on my writing journey and consistently do a fantastic job,
Basri Bayrak and Özlem Durak for their efforts on the road to publishing the book,
My Artistanbul agency family and Doğan Kitap.
Nalan Alaca – still by my side, with her illustrations.
Thanks to you all… And thanks to my dear family and my hometown, Ankara.
All proceeds from the book will be donated to the Turkish Association for People with Spinal Cord Injuries (Türkiye Omurilik Felçlileri Derneği)!
— Engin Akyürek
