As New English Paperback. Pbo. Mint. Demy 8vo. (22 x 14 cm). In Kurdish. 384 p. Zargotina Kurdên Serhedê - Kilam û Destanên Epîk ên Dîrokî, Mêrxasî û Serhildanan" ku ji aliyê Mehmet Gültekin ve hatiye berhevkirin û amadekirin, di nav wesanên Avestayê de derket. Dema kurdek tenê li hember çiyayekî disekine, ew bi hevdû ra bi kurdî diaxivin û distirên. Rohat Alakom, di pêsgotina ku ji bo kitêbê nivîsandiye de wiha dibêje: "Zargotina Kurdên Serhedê ji sedî zêdetir stranên dîrokî ên mêrxasiyê, mêraniyê û cengewariyê pêskêsî xwendevanan dike. Piraniya wan cara yekem derbasî ser kaxiz dibin û tên wesandin. Her stranek li ser mijarekê ava bûye, sax vedaye û bûyerekê vedibêje, pêskês dike. Her yek ji wan xweyê dîrokekê ye yan jî dîrokekê, serpêhatiyekê raberî xwendevanan dike. Mehmet ji bo ku naveroka van berheman bas bê famkirin, destpêkeke dirêj jî wek lêkolîn amade kiriye û ligel van stranan wesandiye. Di vê besê de tistine gelek balkês li ser huner û dîroka dengbêjiya kurdî cîh girtine. Wî bi jêrenot û nivîsnasiyên xwe gelek mijarên nezelal ronî kiriye, alîkarî daye xwendevanan. Ev stran, ev berhemên ku di vê pirtûka delal de cîh girtine ji bo pêsketina ziman, edebiyat û herwisa ji bo dîroka kurdî wek çavkanî dikarin roleke gelek mezin bilîzin û hin pirsên çanda kurdî ronî bikin. Min bi xwe ev pirtûka nivîskar-lêkoler Mehmet Gultekîn bi dildarî û bi hewaseke mezin xwend. Gelek tistên nû ji naveroka vê pirtûka kêrdar fêr bûm. Hêvî dikim ku xwendevanên kurd, dildarên zargotina kurdî jî wê bi kêfxwesiyeke mezin vê pirtûka kurdî bixwînin, tam û lezetekê jê werbigrin."

New English Paperback. Pbo. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In English. 64 p., color ills. "26 folk tales and legends from a variety of towns and regions in Turkey starting from A for Agri and continuing on through Z for Zelve cast a keen and fascinating light on the rich cultural heritage of Anatolia. In addition to stories featuring such familiar characters as Karagöz and Hacivat of the shadow puppet tradition and Nasreddin Hodja, the hero of legends, other stories intrigue us with the adventures of lesser known heroes and legendary figures and give us colorful insights into the history and multi-cultural aspects of Anatolia, a landmass that has long served as a crossroads and meeting point of Europe, Africa, and Asia. The book is further enriched with small maps that pinpoint the location of the story and more in-depth information about the unique cultural and social aspects of the particular region. Young children will be delighted with the stories, while older readers will especially appreciate the wit and universal meanings in the tales, and the highly original information about Turkey and its diverse physical and cultural geography.".
