A hilarious story about love that will make you think and laugh about fetishism and fetishes.
Bedrettin Simsek surprises his readers in "Sweet Fetish" by transforming the dramatic short story "Hair" by French writer Maupassant into a smart, farcical story that depicts madness with clever, quick-witted characters and wise dialogues in the style of Oscar Wilde.
The story "Sweet Fetish" is followed by a two-act play adapted by Bedrettin Simsek from the same story, this time called "The Hair or The Oddities of Love".
Briefly, the plot of the play is as follows:
"In a hidden panel of an antique piece of furniture, a man discovers a long braid of hair. And the contemplation of this head of hair drives him mad. Do spirits really come back to inhabit the forms they left in this world? Or is it we who give life to these forms?"
"The Hair or The Oddities of Love" is an absurd love comedy about fetishism with an exciting and provocative dramatic structure that keeps the audience's interest at all times, and written in a very logical and clever style, so much so that the more absurd the play is, the more sense it makes.
For readers who crave real literature and meaningful humor.
