Anotace knihy

The entire population of a remote village in the Taurus Mountains make an arduous trek to pick cotton on the plains. This way they will earn enough money to pay their debts and buy the necessaries for a bitter highland winter. But one year, an elderly pair of villagers is unable to go on foot and so begin the journey together on a tired old nag. The conflict that develops between them on their way results in a war of words and cunning that lights with sharp comedy the sombre drama of the march. But when the nag finally dies and they fall behind the other villagers, it is the heroic Long Ali who has to show them both compassion and unite them, while pressing on with dogged resolution to reach the cotton fields before they are picked bare. This is the first volume of The Wind from the Plain trilogy, a moving story that illuminates the ruthlessness and humanity of its characters in their struggle to survive.
