Göl Yazı, published in 2017, is a book by Turkish author Enis Batur.
It is a work that contains information and texts about Bursa and Lake Apolyont, Gölyazı, blending factual and fictional elements.[1] The narrative brings together people who have lived in these locations and their encounters, relationships, and associations with islands and peninsulas in various lakes.[2] The author explores the web of relationships within the human-time-space triangle, drawing inspiration from Ahmet Haşim's travel notes on a trip to Bursa.[3]
The book was published with the subtitles Çapraz İlişkiler Kafesi and Katır Metin.[2] The back cover describes it as an anti-novel.
It emerged from the author's writings during his stay at the Writer's House on the shores of Lake Apolyont, invited by the Nilüfer Municipality.[4] The book was awarded the 2018 Yunus Nadi Novel Prize.[5] The selection committee described it as "the novel of literary passion."[3]
