Ahmet Cemil, who is deeply feeling the pain of fatherlessness, refugees to his mother. He was under the wings of his mother throughout the Roman. Ahmet Cemil, who is a dream-destroyed, wants to take his mother with him at the end of the novel and leave Istanbul on a night boat. Ahmet Cemil, who looks at the sea on the roof of the ship, refuses to commit suicide with his mother’s voice. In some ways, Ahmet Cemil, who is alone with death, survives thanks to his mother. It is possible to explain Ahmet Cemil's abandonment of suicide by looking back to his mother. Here, Jung's animation archetype and the desire to return to mother will also take advantage of the rebirth of Ahmet Cemil. In this study, the aim is to reveal the theme of "Return to Mother" in the novel May and Black.
