This should be a very interesting gathering. I like reading Elif Shafak's articles.

 

Aztag newspaper has held interviews with all three participants, you can read them in:

Elif Shafak's articles can be read in Turkish Daily News

Op/Ed section is on the lower right-hand side of the TDN page. I think you will find this 34 years old journalist/novelist's views quite interesting.

I am in New Jersey, so of course I can't come to UCLA as much as I want to.

 

After Nove. 6th will you let this Forum and me know what these guys have to say, please? You don't have to go in great detail, but will you take some notes and let us know the main thoughts? I'll appreciate it dear. :)

 

All the best,
