Note

Artist's book. Each opening consists of: left-hand page bears a date, a headline in English and Turkish and text in Turkish.
The right-hand page bears text in English and an image. "Parodying the format of a regular newspaper column, Today in History presents a series of drawings and paraphrased stories, extracted from Turkish newspapers from the last four decades. The news stories are sometimes poetic, sometimes overtly political, and sometimes strangely surreal. Dislocated from their original context and presented as an artist's impression, the work reveals a changing society, and questions what we perceive to be news and the construction of truth, fiction and history." -- from Book Works website.
