Paperback. Voices fly away, action is forgotten, eye is deceived; as for the scent, it leaves a lasting trace on the skin. Like a drop of acid that burns you up in flames. ".In this sensual and very intriguing novel about a married man driven to chase after beautiful young women, Akbay demonstrates that he can write believably -even brilliantly-about passion, obsession, and feelings bring to the fore in his characters that are wonderfully yet credibly flawed." Mark G. McLaughlin- ForeWord Clarion Review ".Akbay is able to weave together all of these narratives into a logical, compelling tale, in part by using more than one point of view, clearly establishing settings in the different worlds and demonstrates an adept ability to take a complicated story and craft a universal, relatable narrative." Kirkus Indie Review A married man who lost himself chasing after a beautiful young woman. He has had many affairs during his marriage, and now he recognizes right from the start that this one is different. Infatuated by her fascinating scent, he constantly questions her intensions, leading to an exploration of themes such as how well one can ever know another person and the resulting insecurities that arise from suspicions of lies and secrets. While struggling with the unsolvable paradoxes of this illicit love affair on the surface, 'Scent of Skin' keeps a dark dystopia within its background, bestowing sharp sociopolitical critics upon our corrupted world. Interwoven with the memories belong to the future and beyond Earth, these narratives mirror the despair of the society; sometimes deeply grieving, sometimes humorously. 'Scent of Skin' drags us into the mysterious world of pheromones and scents through an eventful bizarre journey, in the same perplexing way, exclaiming how insignificant but yet how priceless the life is.
