Abstract

A Strangeness in My Mind tells the story of the whole life of Mevlut (name of the person), a peddler who sells boza (a kind of beverage). This paper starts with boza in the novel, and discusses the profound historical significance of cultural memory media in the novel. Starting from the street, this paper discusses the performance of urban flaneur after the traditional break. By describing boza and the street, this paper explores the hero’s hüzün (sorrow), and further explores the practical significance of hüzün.
