Aziz Nesin, a dedicated philanthropist, lives modestly today and by giving all of his copyrights to the Nesin Foundation, grants the considerable royalties from his prolific pen to the welfare and education of a number of poor children.
Nesin's satire, pouring out in an endless number of short stories, novels, plays, and television serials, deals with so many different types of people and is drawn from such a wide range of life contexts that it is in a class of its own - unique and yet universal.
Aziz Nesin's real genius, however, is in his ability to perceive and discriminate the satirical element, in his incredible capacity to observe the ridiculous and ludicrous in all situations and to describe it without exaggeration.
