I Will Never See the World Again: The Memoir of an Imprisoned Writer

A resilient Turkish writerâ€™s inspiring account of his imprisonment that provides crucial insight into political censorship amidst the global rise of authoritarianism.
Â
The destiny I put down in my novel has become mine. I am now under arrest like the hero I created years ago. I await the decision that will determine my future, just as he awaited his. I am unaware of my destiny, which has perhaps already been decided, just as he was unaware of his. I suffer the pathetic torment of profound helplessness, just as he did.

Like a cursed oracle, I foresaw my future years ago not knowing that it was my own.
Â
Confined in a cell four meters long, imprisoned on absurd, Kafkaesque charges, novelist Ahmet Altan is one of many writers persecuted by Recep Tayyip ErdoÄŸanâ€™s oppressive regime. In this extraordinary memoir, written from his prison cell, Altan reflects upon his sentence, on a life whittled down to a courtyard covered by bars, and on the hope and solace a writerâ€™s mind can provide, even in the darkest places.
