Mirina Kaleki Rind

Two people. Two thinkers of the Kurdish nation: Kalo, the intellectual of the early twentieth century, and Serdar Azad, the thinker of the present.
Their lives, their feelings, experiences, dreams, and reflections, their conversations with one another and with their surroundings, their inner and outer struggles — all these form the core of Mehmed Uzun’s second novel, Mirina Kalekî Rind.

In the novel, the modern intellectual Serdar Azad sits at his desk, pen in hand, and recalls Kalo, the old philosopher — a peculiar and extraordinary man from a small village.
But who is Kalo? Where does he come from? What does he seek?
At times, Serdar Azad tells his readers about this strange old man; at other times, he speaks directly to Kalo — sharing with him his thoughts, emotions, memories, and childhood.

Thus, the novel unfolds not only as the story of two individuals, but on two intertwined planes — a dialogue between eras, worlds, and ideas.
Kalo appears as a reflection of a forgotten period in Kurdistan’s history, while Serdar Azad, with his feelings, memories, and existential reflections, represents the voice of the modern Kurdish individual.
For though the characters and events are deeply personal, they resonate with the collective soul and historical memory of the Kurdish people.
