Oguz Atay's 1971 novel "The Disconnected [Tutunamayanlar]" is distinctly unique, but it can also be read as a response to Joyce's "Ulysses" - a singular and a very Turkish response. This book establishes Atay's work as a world text in dialogue with the masters of the canon: Shakespeare, Goethe, Dostoevsky, Joyce, and others.
