A Thousand Doorways

SSC

One Woman’s Perilous Quest to Preserve the Culture of the Kurds in Turkey

‘There’s one world, but a thousand doorways’ – (Kurdish saying).

Moved by the silencing of the Kurdish language by Turkish laws,
storyteller Diane Edgecomb embarked on a journey of intrigue and heart
to record the last Kurdish storytellers.

This true account takes us to those mountain villages, forbidden to outsiders, where the true stories of their lives and struggle mix with startling ancient legends.

Compassion and understanding open new doorways to this hidden world: a
mythic landscape of shepherds, guard towers, caravans, impossible
mountain passes and the mysterious eggs of an ancient tree.
