The Turkish translation of artist and writer Pete Najarian's third novel Daughters of Memory, published in 1986, is published by Aras Publishing under the title Daughters of Memory. Najarian, who gave this title to his novel in reference to the Muses, the daughters of Mnemosyne, the Goddess of Memory in Greek mythology, by Zeus, traces the past through his protagonist Zeke and the chorus of old women who function like the chorus in Greek tragedy, and connects the past to the present, and the story of his family, which began in Anatolia, to America. In Zeke's mind, the figure of a woman who has haunted him since he was a child and who appears in different appearances at different times and in different places overlaps with his grandmother who died in the desert, a woman whose face even his mother does not remember. The female figures of art history, the women in his dreams, the women he falls in love with, his mother, his grandmother, all of them accompany Zeke's search. Najarian has written Daughters of Memory with a striking fiction. This narrative, in which sexual energy permeates almost every line, draws the reader into the depths of memory and forgetting, past and present, dream and reality, sexuality, violence and art.
