Neşe Doster's new book 'Women's Rights? Where?' contains many articles that are independent of each other but connected by very deep ties. In the book, while traveling the world on a path that starts in Turkey, goes to Chile, and then reaches America, it is presented to readers how similar the fate of women is, regardless of geography. On every page of the book, one witnesses how the same problems experienced in America, considered the land of civilization, repeat themselves in third-world countries...
Funda Ergenekon, Editor-in-Chief of Kirpi Literature and Thought Magazine, says the following about the book 'Women's Rights? Where?':
"There is an undeniable reality. There is a reality where we have fallen, have been pushed down, have been pushed below, or even sometimes jumped ourselves from the seat of Cybele, from the position of the mother goddess. With 'Women's Rights? Where?', this undeniable reality reaches us through Neşe Doster's fluid pen.
In these writings, each starting with a different emotion and ending with different emotions, you easily find yourself. You understand why there is no solution and why it has not been solved, even though problems are a repetition of each other in our huge world. With 'Women's Rights? Where?', Neşe Doster tells everyone: different geographies, different countries, different cultures, different women, but the same problems.
“What an endless tally this is, what an endless allergy to women!”
As you read, you realize that Neşe Doster's pen is also hardening. Well, is she right? Of course, she is right to the end! Because we have no answer to the question “when did women step off the stage”.
At a time when the time for women to be reborn from their ashes has long since passed, we realize with this book by Neşe Doster that we need to shake ourselves off and cast off the dead soil upon us. It is quite difficult to fit the purpose of the book into words, but at its core, this book tells all of us, all our women, that it is time to speak, it says do not be silent, it says if you remain silent, your turn will come.
In short, I have tried to explain that this is not a book to be bought just for the sake of buying. If it is bought, it should be read; if it is read, it should be discussed; if it is discussed, it should be acted upon! This book, which needs to be read and seen in our country where it is not read or seen, needs to be taken off the shelves and started to be read. It must be started so that exceptions and statistics can break the rules.
“As long as the name of the hard knot stuck in the throat of countries is woman, and as long as no one aspires to solve her problems, this picture remains in front of us.”
I hope we can all see this picture and chart our path in the footsteps of our Ancestor. We have become nothing but numbers. We do not speak, and we do not even wonder who is defending our situation, which we ignore. While I applaud Neşe Doster's curiosity, I also want to tell you here that I have no intention of sitting still.”
