Özet:

The novel Lost Patient, written by Mehmet Açar which is setting an example for dystopian works in Turkish literature and Brave New World by Aldous Huxley, one of the classic examples of dystopia in world literature, were analyzed in terms of Kafkaesque atmosphere. In this process, the dystopian features of the works were analyzed and the spaces reflecting the Kafkaesque atmosphere were examined. In Lost Patient and Brave New World, the Kafkaesque features of the interior and exterior spaces were examined separately and reached outcomes by this method. The suffocating indoor space, labyrinth-like features and suppression of the main characters are common in both works, which are the most important elements that reflect the Kafkaesque atmosphere. On the other hand, unlike interior spaces, exterior spaces are the symbol of liberation from dystopias. In outdoor spaces, the characters are free and the effects of the Kafkaesque atmosphere that created the dystopia are diminished.
