Turan Dursun'un neden katledildigini anlamaniza yardimci olacak kitaplardan biri. Seneler once lise yillarimda okumustum aslinda ama bu kadar zaman sonra tekrar okumak gerekti, yogun bir bilgi oldugu icin kitapta tazelemek gerekiyor... Herkese kesinlikle tavsiye ederim kolay okunan bir kitap olmasa da...
