Kasım 2019'da Çin'in Wuhan kentinde ilk ortaya çıkışından bugüne, Covid-19 Pandemisi dünyayı dönüştüren, küresel ölçekte hareket etme, davranma, düşünme ve dünyayı gözlemleme şeklimizi yeniden şekillendiren bir olay haline geldi. Orhan Pamuk'un 2021 yılında yayınlanan Veba Geceleri romanı, benzer bir salgın konusunu temalaştıran ve kültürel, politik ve sosyal sonuçlarını yeniden ele alan ilk romanlardan biridir. Veba Geceleri, Pamuk'un daha önceki bazı eserlerine benzer şekilde, ulus inşası deneyimini ve bu tür siyasi çabalara eşlik eden şiddet, milliyetçilik, komploları temalaştırıyor. Pamuk'un diğer eserlerinden Kara Kitap ve Benim Adım Kırmızı'yı anımsatan bu roman, polisiye roman türünü ele alıyor ve hikâyenin merkezine akademisyen bir kadın anlatıcı uygulayarak polisiye roman türünü değiştirmektedir. Romanın hayali Minger Adası karakterlerinin etnik ve dini referanslarına yaptığı özel göndermeler, Osmanlı İmparatorluğu'nun yüzleşmek zorunda olduğu tarihsel sorunu yansıtıyor: İmparatorluk içinde farklı etnik kökenlerin tamamen artan milliyetçi ayaklanmaları karşısında İmparatorluğu nasıl ayakta tutalabilir?. Pamuk, tarihi referans noktaları olarak Rodos ve Girit ile bariz bir paralellik kuruyor ve hızla kutuplaşan ve tıbbi açıdan tehlikeli bir dönemde ulusal kimliğin sürdürülmesi gibi çeşitli konularda test alanı haline gelen hayali bir Ada yaratmaktadır. Orhan Pamuk’un bu romanı, önceki romanlarının benzeri şekilde ulusal bilinç ve yönetim konularında yeni perspektifler sunmaktadır. Buna ilaveten, Pamuk’un bu romanı, anlatım şekli itibariyle modern ve postmodern romanın öncül bir örneğini oluşturmaktadır.
From the first appearance in the Chinese city of Wuhan in November 2019 to the present day, the Covid-19 pandemic has turned the world into an event that reforms our way of moving, behaving, thinking and observing the world globally. Published by Orhan Pamuk in 2021 The Veba Nights His novel is one of the first novels to submit the subject of a similar epidemic and to re-interpret its cultural, political and social consequences. The Veba Nights Similar to some of Pamuk's previous works, it subjects the experience of nation building and the violence, nationalism, and complots accompanied by such political efforts. The other works of Pamuk The Black Book and My name is Red. This novel reminds us of the police novel type and changes the police novel type by applying an academic female narrator to the center of the story. The novel’s fictional special posts of the Minger Island characters to ethnic and religious references reflect the historical issue that the Ottoman Empire has to face: how can the Empire stand up against the entirely growing nationalist rebellion of different ethnic origins within the Empire? Cotton establishes a clear parallel with Rhodes and Grites as historical reference points and creates a imaginary island that is rapidly polarized and becomes a test area on a variety of subjects, such as the preservation of national identity in a medical dangerous period. This novel of Orhan Pamuk, like his previous novels, offers new perspectives on the issues of national consciousness and governance. In addition, Pamuk’s novel is a preliminary example of modern and postmodern novel in its narrative form.
