Men Alone

From Özgür Uyanik, novelist and film director, comes a debut collection of audacious, darkly wry and compassionate short stories. Driven by universal themes of desire, mortality, loss and yearning, each story evokes both the melancholy and the hope inherent in all stages of life, from childhood through to maturity.

Artists, writers, lovers, killers: all types of men walk these pages and find love or lose love in the European cities of Cardiff, Istanbul, London, Paris, Odessa and Lisbon. All seeking to find a way to belong in the world.

Men Alone is a meditative vision from a unique voice that explores the many – often confounding – permutations of modern masculinity.
