I am looking for a publisher for my satirical novels and essays👇👇👇

Dear Publisher, I am Şenol Onay, a Turkish author with seven published books in Turkey. I've independently translated three of my satirical novels and three essay collections into English, and I am now seeking a publisher for these works. My work offers a unique blend of satire, autobiography, and social commentary, often through invented words and unconventional narratives. I'd like to briefly introduce my translated works: Novels: * Horgeneral: This autobiographical novel, told in the first person, offers a universal perspective while sharply critiquing Turkish society. The title, a playful twist on the Turkish military rank "Orgeneral," is designed to be striking and memorable. Though fictionalized, many anecdotes are based on real events. * Gazilerle Niyaziler: This novel follows the adventures of twin brothers. "Gazi" means veteran, and "Niyazi" means "one who dies in vain" in Turkish. The narrative explores identity and unexpected swaps as a national football player and a staff captain inadvertently trade places, leading to humorous and absurd situations. * Errorist: This novel recounts the escapades of a con artist named Anıl, who forms a seven-person gang. The "Errorism" ideology unites them, bringing together diverse characters including a mathematics professor, a retired officer, a doctor, a journalist, and a Nicaraguan living in Turkey. Essay Collections: * Reziliazam: I coined this title by transforming "vizier" (Ottoman grand vizier) into "reziliazam," implying "the greatest of the reprobates." This collection covers a wide range of topics including literature, politics, philosophy, economics, the stock market, terror, animals, and sports. * Deliminatör: Inspired by "Terminator," I invented this word to mean "the person who drives people crazy." This collection also consists of diverse essays. * Paramatör: This title evokes the meaning of "money creator," and this collection delves into various topics through my unique essayistic lens. I also design the conceptual covers for all my books, which are then illustrated by famous cartoonists in Turkey. I can arrange for similar artistic compositions for the English editions. I would be delighted to send you any of my translated books for your review. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Şenol Onay

There's incredible censorship in Turkey , and there's no trace of freedom of expression , but a horrific system has been established...
