The Age of the Ordinary

The Age of the Ordinary (Turkish: Aleladelik Çağı) is the first of the “Lost Generation” series by the author, satirist and playwright, Hikmet Temel Akarsu (born 1960).

The novel is based on how society has become "ordinary" due to the system of values exerted by the neo-liberal age and its merging with "the new right" to capture all its members in a profit and illicit gain seeking frenzy. The Age of the Ordinary brings striking views on the paradoxical human condition set back on the panoramic background of the period.
