About the book

Studies chiefly the life of two villages in the Yuntdağ area of Turkey. The names and locations of the villages have been changed. The Yuntdağ region is chiefly in Izmir Province. The study follows the migrations of some of the villagers to nearby towns out of the Yuntdağ region and even as far away as Bamberg, Germany. Claims that villagers notions of Islam are compounded of three main strands: local Islamic traditions, the state approved version of Islam, and the version presented by various brotherhoods.
