About A Marriage Under A Comet

One of Turkiye's most influential authors and often likened to Charles Dickens, Hüseyin Rahmi Gürpınar addressed issues like superstition, class struggles, and gender dynamics with a mix of realism and humor. Set in Istanbul, this sharp and humorous satirical story captures the hysteria surrounding the predicted approach of Halley's Comet in 1919. Against a backdrop of apocalyptic fears and superstitions, the story follows İrfan Galip, a modern - yet conservative - young man, as he navigates his budding romance with a mysterious woman.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
