Following on from the previous post regarding the
anthropologist who spent several months in Gümüşlük between 1966 & 67 I
found a retrospective account of her stay published in 2003, it has all the ingredients
of a suspense novel, a marital breakup, battles with the state bureaucracy, accusations
of smuggling, association with a suspected spy and explosives being planted in
her vehicle.
Most of the chapter is available on Google Books; see the link
