Sabah’a Teşekkürler
Saturday, May 17th, 2008I am really happy and honored to report that Vampire Weekend and I are featured in a joint profile
and Ülker, manufacturer of Cola Turka, and also of something called Badem Kraker (Almond Crackers), which as a child I used to feed to the swans in Ankara’s Swan Park. The thing that made a big impression on me at the time is that the almond crackers didn’t actually contain any almonds at all—rather, they were shaped like almonds. This was my first introduction to metaphor versus metonymy.
