Tales, fables, fragments, sketches, and other short literary forms have comprised the fabric of scary stories told and re-told, adapted, transformed, appropriated and re-appropriated. Their brevity is, and was often, central to their wider dissemination, and for the publication and democratisation of voices that might have otherwise remained unheard; allowing them to be accessed by those who might have otherwise been excluded. Much of their debt is, undoubtedly owed to the oral yarn, the fireside tale, the urban legend, and many have, and remain, connected to a diverse and rich visual culture.

Call for Book Chapters:

A critical edition of Halide Edib Adivar's serialized novels (1910-1961) in English translation is currently under consideration for publication. I am soliciting book chapters on:

-Halide Edib and women's literature

-Women, media, and the Turkish novel in twentieth-century Turkey

-Film adaptations and/or book illustrations of Halide Edib's novels
