Colophon

Hulki Okan Tabak conceived the city, its people and the story arcs, directed the AI's drafting, and worked extensively with Claude and Codex on rewriting and editing. Approximately 90,000 words were written across successive versions to arrive at this roughly 32,000-word English book. English is the original language. The Turkish edition, Ziyaret Saatleri, is an AI translation prepared and revised under the author's direction.
