Lighthouse

Each person perceives a city's history, geography, social life, transformations, people, atmosphere, natural beauties, forgotten values, food and drink culture, day and night, summer and winter, folklore, entertainment, and a thousand other features in their own way. A historian sees it one way, a geographer another, a tourism professional another, a soldier another, a teacher yet another, and each wants to write from their own perspective.

However, an author-literary figure approaches their city with their own unique sensitivity. They look at their surroundings with the eyes of their heart. They put themselves in the shoes of different people, trying to feel with their hearts, and then they write... When an author writes, many people find their own feelings and unspoken thoughts in that writing. They also want to remember what has been written before them...

Based on this idea, Heyamola Publications continues its "İstanbulum Book Series," which it launched within the scope of the Istanbul 2010 European Capital of Culture Project.
