Set against the backdrop of the collapsing Ottoman Empire, the Gallipoli campaign & the subsequent bitter struggle between Greeks & Turks, Birds Without Wings traces the fortunes of one small community in south-west Anatolia
- a town in which Christian & Muslim lives & traditions have co-existed peacefully for centuries.

When war is declared & the outside world intrudes, the twin scourges of religion & nationalism lead to forced marches & massacres, & the peaceful fabric of life is destroyed. Birds Without Wings is a novel about the personal & political costs of war, & about love: between men & women; between friends; between those who are driven to be enemies; & between Philothei, a Christian girl of legendary beauty, & Ibrahim the Goatherd, who has courted her since infancy. Epic in sweep, intoxicating in its sensual detail, it is an enchanting masterpiece.
