Wild Things
Who is this "me" within me? It's as if there are two people inside us. What creates this duality of thought? Is it that cricket we call conscience? What's the point of adding yet another fairy-tale creature among us? Who am I even talking to right now? To you, dear reader? Do you take pleasure in listening to a killer?
As you count sheep before falling asleep, how many people come to the tip of your barrel? Have you ever been tempted to kill any of them? Political figures; the fleeting people who set your nerves on edge amid the day's troubles; your coworkers, schoolmates, childhood friends, your family, your lover… Is a murderer only the one who pulls the trigger — or the one who, in a tavern restroom, haggles with a stranger to have their lover killed?
Amid the middle-class ordinariness of gyms, corporate life and highway dust, Alper Alpözgen tells the story of the most extraordinary, absurd — yet somehow entirely plausible — murders, in a fluent and tense delight.
