A retired General - the leader of the latest military takeover - moves to a peaceful island and decides to rid it of what he sees as its last remaining ''anarchic'' components. The island, described by its people as a utopia, the last peaceful resort for mankind, morphs into dystopia when the General, in the hope of bringing order to the island life, begins to act more and more like a dictator. The first ones to revolt against the General are the seagulls. Originally written in 2008 as a condemnation of the authoritarian Turkish regime, The Last Island has only grown more relevant, foreshadowing the events and aftermath of Istanbul''s bloody Gezi Park/Taksim Square political protests of 2013, as well as the protest movements of our time.
