In the context of the fact that canonical literary works are predominantly formed within Western literature and that even the critiques are mainly coming from Western feminists, this paper primarily explores the potentials of canonization in Turkish literature. The study examines Suat Derviş's works, drawing parallels between Derviş's name, personality, and struggle, and how characters from Kara Kitap to Hiç are portrayed in terms of their class, social, and gender backgrounds. The article discusses the relationships between Derviş's characters and the embodiment of their bodies by questioning the possibility of canonization of feminist literature and women's narratives within Suat Derviş's literature.
