Editor's Note:
Kadından Kentler, Murathan Mungan'ın 16 kentte geçen 16 hikâyeden oluşan yeni kitabı.izmirSabahın bu erken saatinde İzmir bambaşka görünüyordu gözüne. Nurhayat, Ömer Çavuş Kahvesi'nde oturduğu masada birdenbire her şeyi yeniden gözden geçirmesi gerektiğini hissetti. Emin olmak ne demekti? Bir kadın ne zaman emin olurdu? Cuma günü onu istemeye geleceklerdi ve Nurhayat şimdi bu evliliği isteyip istemediğinden emin değildi.adanaHavalandırma serinliğinin dışarıyı unutturduğu otelin kapısına çıktıklarında vahşi Adana sıcağı yüzlerine olanca acımasızlığıyla çarparken, Emine için gün çoktan bitmişti aslında. Bir başkasının filminde konuk oyuncu olduğunu bilmenin ısmarlama adımlarıyla Gülsüm'ün ardı sıra basamakları indi. Kapıda onları bekleyen son model Mercedes'in içinden fırlayan şoför, gösterişli bir saygıyla eğilip kapıları açtı. Üniformalı değildi ama hareketleri üniformalı gibiydi. Beyaz gömleği son düğmesine kadar iliklenmiş, koyu renk boyunbağı bağlamıştı; gömleğinin kısa kollu olmasından başka havayı hafifletecek bir şey yoktu üstünde.trabzonTrabzon burması bu! Bunun ne demeye geldiğini en çok anasından biliyor. Trabzon burması demek, gelecek demek. Umut demek. Bütün bir hayat demek. Şimdi karşısında bir ölünün bileğinde ışıldıyor. Birdenbire bunca yoksulluğun ortasında ışıyan bilezik, bu ölümü başka türlü anlamlandırıyor gözünde. İçi kamaşıyor...bursaEsme, Bursa'daki ilk kışlarında, yerli melodramların Uludağ sahnelerinde üzeri çok motifli rengârenk kazaklar giyen Yeşilçam jönlerine nazire, Engin'e doğum gününde böyle bir kazak almayı düşünmüştü. Sonra vazgeçmişti ama düşüncesi bile onları eğlendirmeye yetmişti. Hayal işte! Şimdi yakası beyaz kürklü taba rengi kabanıyla getiriyordu Engin'i gözünün önüne... samsunBazı hikâyeler parça parça gün ışığına çıktıkça özel bir güç, gerçeküstü bir nitelik kazanır. Songül'ün kayınvaldesinin hikâyesi de biraz böyle. Bazen hiç tanımadığınız bir ölü, ansızın hayatınızda yer kaplamaya başlar. Şengül, sanki bilinmez bir yazgının yönlendirmesiyle Samsun'a kadar bu kadının hikâyesini dinlemek için gelmişti....amasyaYeşilırmak kıyısındaki çay bahçelerinden birinde buluşacaklar. Sakin akan ırmağın yeşiline dalmış olan Güzel, evlendikten sonra Cem'le birlikte Edirne'ye Nihal Abla'yı ziyarete gidişlerini düşünüyor. Zamanla herşey unutulmuştu. Akıp giden bu ırmak gibi her şey akıp gitmez mi?ankaraErtesi gün cebimde sahte bir kimlikle Kızılay'da, bilirsiniz, Kocabeyoğlu Çarşısı'nın yanı başındaki Tansel Plak'a gittim. Yeniyetmeliğimin, gençliğimin Ankara'sının önemli uğrak yerlerinden biriydi. Aranıyor olmak, "biri olmak" demekti ve ben kısa bir süre için de olsa, şu bulanık kalabalığın içinde amaçsız dolaşan rasgele biri olmak istemiştim. Zafer Çarşısı'nın kitapçıları da burnumda tütüyordu ama şansımı zorlamamalıydım. Bilmeyen yoktu. Gizli polisler orada cirit atıyordu...sinop"Sinop'a geldiğinizde mutlaka beklerim. Evimizin penceresinden Sinop Kalesi görünüyor bir görseniz! Dalgalar, deniz! Nasıl anlatsam! Yağmurlu havada başka, güneşli havada bir başka." Gülümsüyorum. Bayramda anne-babasının eline öpmeye gelmiş Seher. Bu, evlendikten sonraki ilk bayramları...afyon"Afyon İkbal Tesisleri'ne hoş geldiniz" diyen anons çınlıyor kulaklarda: "Denizli istikametinden gelip, İstanbul istikametine gitmekte olan Kanat Turizm'in değerli yolcuları, otobüsünüz yarım saat çay molası vermiştir." Gözleri Mecnun'u arıyor. Bugün niye yok ortalarda? Yoksa? Onu göremediği her seferinde yüreğini sinsice yoklayan bu korku...kırşehirHayat Hanım her haliyle adının hakkını veren "hayat dolu" bir kadındı. Hiçbir şehirde iki üç yıldan fazla yaşamaz, her seferinde yeniden taşınırdı. "Oturmadığın vilayet kaldı mı?" diye soranlara, "Olmaz mı canım? Var elbette. Ben doğduğumda memleketimizin 67 vilayeti vardı. Biz böyle bildik, böyle öğrendik. Her kasaba irisini böyle kolayından il yapmaya devam ederlerse, hepsine yetişemeden ölüp gideceğim," diye hayıflanıyormuş gibi yapar, arkasından o ünlü kahkahalarından birini patlatırdı.erzurumSuna'nın bavullardaki fotoğrafları ilk görüşü değildi. Erzurum'a geliş gidişlerinde birkaç kez el atıp bakmışlığı vardı. Şimdi onları her eline aldığında kafasını kurcalayan, zihnine üşüşen olguların bir teki bile o zaman aklına gelmemiş, hatta üzerinde durulmaya değer bile bulmamıştı. Değişen neydi öyleyse? Bu fotoğrafların içini ancak şimdi görmesini sağlayan neydi?diyarbakırBaşkomiserin kendisini içeri çağırmasını beklerken Aslı'nın gözleri oturduğu bankta. Yer yer boyaları soyulmuş. Hani nasıl adlandıracağını bilemediğin ara renkler vardır ya, öyle. Şimdi içeri çekip polis zoruyla sorsalar, "Söyle bakalım kızım, ne renktir bu," söyleyemezsin. İnsan zihni ne tuhaf! Neler düşünüyor? Polisin burada, Diyarbakır'da sorduğu, sorabileceği sorular düşünüldüğünde ne kadar saçma şu aklından geçenler! Yoksa o kadar da saçma değil mi? kayseriLüks Terzi'nin Kızları derlerdi o zamanlar üçüne birden. Laf aramızda kalsın en alımlıları ortancası Sofya! Sofya dediğime bakma, asıl adı Mualla tabii. Peki adı niye Sofya kaldı diyeceksin? Bir düşün: Değil Kayseri'de, değil Türkiye'de, dünyada kaç kadın vardır Sophie Loren'e bu kadar benzeyen? Onu görsen. O zamanların Kayserisi de başkaydı. Şimdiki gibi on dördüne varmadan mantoya girmiyordu kızlar...gümüşhaneKapıyı açan kadına, "Sen Asiye misin?" diye sordu. Birbirlerini tartan bakışlarla baktılar kısa bir süre. Kapıyı çalan genç kadın kimi aradığını çok iyi biliyor, kapıyı açansa diğerini tanımıyordu. Başından azıcık kaymış tülbentini sıkılarken "Evet Asiye benim," dedi kadın, "ne vardı?"mersinKarısı ölmüş yakın zaman önce, çocukları evlenmişler zati, kimi Mersin'den gitmiş, kimi ayrı eve çıkmış. Pozcu Mahallesi'nde yeni bir ev aldım, koca evde tek başına yalnızlık çekilmiyor, dedi, gel evlen benimle. Önce alay ediyor sandım. On dört - on beş yaşın hevesi kalır mı bunca sene? Kalırmış meğer. Kaderim Mersin'deymiş, bilememişim. istanbul, esenler otogarıAz sonra daha sakin sayılabilecek bir sesle, "Vardığımızda bana haber eder misin kızım," diyor. "Ben yol iz bilmem. Geçmeyeyim Elazığ'ı." "Merak etme teyze," diyor Zozan. "Uyusan bile, ben uyandırırım seni." "Gözümün uyku tutacağını sanmam," diyor kadın. Zozan en azından bu sefer çok daha neşeli bir yolculuk hayal etmişken kendisi için, yanına oturan şu mahzun görünüşlü, kederli kadının varlığıyla içinin bulutlandığını, yüreğinin çatallanıp ağırlaştığını hissediyor.
