Thriller Domestic | LGBTQ | Novella / Short Story

A gay couple’s 40-year relationship is imperiled by a new arrival to their sleepy island paradise: The Birdcage as done by Highsmith.

Fehmi   and Şener have been together forty years—no small feat for any pair,  but especially admirable for a gay couple in Turkey. Behind closed  doors, their life on Büyükada, an idyllic island near Istanbul, is like a  powder keg that needs only one spark to blow. That spark soon comes in   the form of Deniz, the wildly handsome and troubled teenager next door,  who immediately catches Fehmi’s eye.

This “harmless” crush immediately raises Şener’s hackles; although he doesn’t think Deniz would ever reciprocate Fehmi’s feelings, it’s not a risk he’s willing to take. But when one betrayal leads to another, Deniz hatches a plan, and the sultry summer takes a dark turn as the couple’s relationship is put to the test like never before. Will lust or love win the day? One thing’s for sure: not everyone will be getting out of this love triangle alive.

Dishy, suspenseful, and boiling over with black humor, Yiğit Karaahmet’s debut makes a fierce political statement about supporting “gay wrongs” while also introducing a shockingly lovable pair of antiheroes who could be Tom Ripley’s grandfathers.
