Abstract

In this study, the stories of Murat Gülsoy, one of the most important names of contemporary Turkish literature, were examined in the context of change and matamorphosis. In these stories, two features come to the fore. Firstly the individual who is not satisfied with his life decides to change his life. However, he/she tries to make this change by taking another person to the center. This change, dependent on someone else, results in frustration or deceit. The individual may conclude that the change that will give meaning to his/her life must originate from his/her own essence. When the individual wants to lead an independent life from another, he/she encounters loneliness. Some people who can not cope with loneliness are willing to direct their life according to someone else. Secondly the individual may be maintaining a distinctive way of life. This life order can be upset by someone else's intervention. Thus, the individual loses control over his/her life and keeps up with the life of the other. This swallowing can also be materialized by the hidden aspect of the individual's subconscious.
