summary: nafiz efendi, struggling to make ends meet, is a night owl trying to drown his troubles in glasses and bottles.

one day, he steals his mother-in-law's pay stub and ends up in a tavern. While returning home drunk from the brothel, he buys a head of cabbage for his mother-in-law to get rid of her nagging, and while being teased by the neighborhood children following him, he falls into a blind well that he doesn't notice at dusk.

nafiz efendi, with the help of his neighbors and the police, takes a piece of coal along with his cabbage to his seat while being removed from the well. However, what is wrapped in its cocoon is not cabbage as nafiz efendi thought, but a severed human head. This severed head, found by chance, alarms the istanbul security. Sent to solve this grisly murder, steeped in secrets, seyit and remzi efendis join forces and launch into an investigation, piecing together the clues.

whose head is it, why was it cut off and thrown into the well, where is the rest of the body, and most importantly, who is the killer or killers? With his humor and fluent style, hüseyin rahmi gürpınar, in his only detective novel, kesik baş, invites the reader into a suspenseful and gripping fiction, beginning in the narrow streets, alleys, cemeteries, and mysterious hotels of early 1900s istanbul, and extending to italy. Hüseyin rahmi gürpınar (1864-1944), who brought his era and surroundings to life in his novels and was loved and read by wide audiences from his youth, is one of the rare personalities in our literature. In his books, topics such as the unique beliefs of istanbul life, social and economic inequalities, and relationships between men and women are often portrayed in a humorous, sometimes melancholic way, while preserving the authentic speech patterns of the people.
