Overview
Published in France in 2018 to major acclaim, The Furrow follows a French writer living in Istanbul as she researches the life and death of Hrant Dink, the real-life Turkish-Armenian journalist, editor, and peace activist murdered in 2007. The novel blends a variety of genres into a feminist interpretation and defense of democracy, and reimagines the conventions of personal narrative, reinforcing the first-person narrator’s voice while simultaneously disintegrating it through a collective approach to voice that splinters our expectations for who is telling what story, and why.
Winner of the prestigious Prix Renaudot, The Furrow arrives in English at a critical time in the contemporary zeitgeist, as authoritarianism becomes an ever greater presence across the world, and collective action an ever greater and more urgent response.
