For instance, Nilgun is utilizing her leftist leaning views to alienate anyone around her (who is not of the same political percussion). On one of her return trips from the beech, she is met by a right wing extremist who likes her. During a conversation, he is looking out for her safety and tells her of a plot to harm her. She immediately calls him a fascist and is subsequently beaten by this person. The next morning, she does not feel well and decides to lie down. She becomes worse and dies from a cerebral hemorrhage. Her brothers do not know what to do and are in shock about these events. They subsequently disappear and cannot be seen by Fatma.
These elements are showing how there is a sense of alienation among all of the grandchildren. This occurs from the beginning with each one using different activities as a form of escape. While the novel progress, the situations they encounter are contributing to even greater amounts of isolation. This takes place in the way they react to numerous events and the lasting harm their actions are causing to others. When this happens, each person feels more isolated from not having the ability to connect with someone or feel the sense of closeness they are seeking.
At the end, is the point these ideas come full circle to illustrate this sense of isolation with Fatma feeling the full effects. This occurs, when she wants to say goodbye to Nilgun and is unable to do so. She then, calls for her other grandchildren and Recep. However, no one responds...
Unable to go downstairs, she lies on her bed and covers herself underneath the sheet.
This is adding to the total amounts of isolation everyone is feeling by showing the lasting effects on Fatama. She wants to say goodbye to her grandchildren and continues to call out for someone to acknowledge her. Yet, no one is around or able to communicate about what is happening. This leads to fears of her being helpless and all alone. These concerns are brought full circle with her grandchildren engaging in different actions to deal with their own isolationism, how they react to certain events and the impact it having on the family.

Coetzee and Defoe Coetzee's novels like Foe and Dusklands are an explicit rejection of the old cultural and literary canons, of which Robinson Crusoe has always been part. Indeed, his stories reverse the standard narrative of white male narrators, adventurers and colonizers, who explore and conquer the 'savage' regions of the world and mold them in the image of Western-Christian civilization. White men literally tell these stories, while blacks, Asians, American
control over one's own destiny is an illusion of misconstructed ideals and metaphysical analysis. Beginning with Sigmund Freud's fascination with the power of the unconscious which he explicitly details through his work Dora (1963), the influence that the unconscious has on an individual is explicated and determined to practically guide everything that one does, but without really giving the illusion that one is in control.
