Finch tells the story of the journey of an unnamed hero, who witnessed the destruction of his fetal sibling candidate with the help of a bird's feather, into his own history, or rather into his infancy. Despite his advancing age, our hero has never been able to shake off the impact of the event he witnessed, even if just by looking at it, in his infancy, and that's why he struggles to remember the details. One day, he comes across a baby photo by chance and experiences a short trance state. The bird used as a tool in the destruction of its brother turns into a finch bird over time. If our hero wants to travel to his past, to that dim hall where he was a baby, he has to resort to the guidance of this bird and, moreover, learn to live with it. We all sometimes experience confusion, meticulousness, unhappiness, intolerance of waiting, and talking too much, all of which do not require psychiatric help. And perhaps, as in this novel, we can one day find the cause of these psychological states we experience on our own, without any help. Ahmet Coşkun, in İspinoz, tells the "infancy story" that our hero carries in his unconscious. invites us to see. With an extraordinary fiction, it wants us to see and listen to life and ourselves a little bit again.
