A few years ago, the archivists at the #WilliamSaroyan family library asked me to read his #Christmas card for their YouTube account. It was an honor, and I'm pleased to repost it every year. It helps me get in the spirit, and not just because it's my voice :)

I just finished reading this sentence by #WilliamSaroyan:
He would hold a cut melon to his nostrils for hours.
"Gerçekten insan olmaya ancak, birbirinize beslediğiniz doğal nefrete rağmen, birbirinize saygı gösterdiğiniz zaman başlayacağınızı bilmesini isterdim. Uygar olmak budur işte!"

Ermeni asıllı Amerika'lı roman, hikaye ve tiyatro yazarının aramızdan ayrılışının 44. yılında saygıyla..
Ben ne dersem diyeyim dünyayı gerizekâlılar sarmış durumda. Gerizekâlılık deyince bunu her şeyi berbat eden cehalet ve daha da kötüsü, kasti körlük anlamında kullanıyorum.
William Saroyan, Yetmiş Bin Süryani.

#booksky I was looking around for some lit-related tshirts that aren’t the standard canon. Evidently, #redbubble thinks the man on the left is #WilliamSaroyan. However…it is not.

En güzel günlerinde yaşamana bak, yaşa ki o güzel günlerde ölüm ve çirkinlik hem senin hayatından hem de seninkiyle kesişen başka hayatlardan uzak olsun. #WilliamSaroyan
Good people are good because they’ve come to wisdom through failure.
