Kuyucaklı Yusuf by Sabahattin Ali
A young, idealistic peasant from a small Aegean village endures hardship and exploitation, is taken into the household of a local notable in a nearby town, and becomes entangled in an unequal love for the household’s sheltered niece; his honesty and longing collide with hypocrisy, greed, and social injustice, leading to betrayal and a tragic, inevitable downfall that exposes the moral failures of the surrounding society.
