Kayıp Sembol’de Kartal Cezaevi
Kayıp Sembol kitabı çıktıktan sonra, kitabın çevirmeni Petek Demir, kitapta Türkleri kızdıracak bazı bölümlerin olduğundan bahsetti. Geceyarısı ekspresini hatırlatacak şeyler olduğunu söyledi. Kitabı okurken, kartal cezaevi ile ilgili çıkan kısımları tarayıcımdan geçirerek burda yayınlamaya çalışacağım. Malesef, kitabın henüz türkçesi çıkmadığından alıntı ingilizce orjinalden olacak ve tarayıcı programımın yaptığı harf hatalarından dolayı da sorumluluk kabul etmiyorum :)
DAN BROWN THE LOST SYMBOL
Page 204The moment Zachary received the money, he broke from the family, disappearing from the house without taking any of his belongings. He surfaced a few months later in the tabloids: TRUST FUND PLAYBOY LIVING EUROPEAN HIGH LIFE.
The tabloids took joy in documenting Zachary’s spoiled life of debauchcry. The photos of wild parties on yachts and drunken disco stupors were hard for the Solomons to take, but the photos of their wayward teen turned from tragic to frightening when the papers reported Zachary had been caught carrying cocaine across a horder in Eastern Europe: SOLOMON MILLIONAIRE IN TURKISH PRISON.
The prison, they learned, was called Soganlik—a brutal F-class detention center located in the Kartal district outside of Istanbul. Peter Solomon, fearing for his son’s safety, flew to Turkey to retrieve him. Katherine’s distraught brother returned empty-handed, having been forbidden even to visit with Zachary. The only promising news was that Solomon’s influential contacts at the U.S. State Department were working on getting him extradited as quickly as possible.
Two days later, however, Peter received a horrifying international phone call. The next morning, headlines blared: SOLOMON HEIR MURDERED IN PRISON.
The prison photos were horrific, and the media callously aired them all, even long after the Solomons’ private burial ceremony. Peter’s wife never forgave him for failing to free Zachary, and their marriage came to an end six months later. Peter had heen alone ever since.
