Summary/Abstract: Some propositions of social realism require authors to handle their relationship with the society in a realist approach. The point emphasized by the realist authors is the necessity of correcting wrong conscious. These authors believe that social formation has a purpose which will appear in the last instance. For that reason it is first necessary to give information of the reality. This information keeps individuals away from the wrong conscious and enables them to perceive class interests and thus the individual can start struggling for changing the world. The author needs to show the individual all the deformities in the society explicitly so that a better world could be established. For this purpose social realist authors present the apparatuses in the text which the system use while trying to change the individual as tools that serve for preserving the order, on the other hand they oppose to the fact that principles such as injustice and inequality, which they use for transforming the conditions in order to continue the presence of the purpose of the order, are presented as a data originating from the natural structure of the society. Preserving something which exists in a place where the change of human being and the order is considered equivalent brings along that realities are not accepted as they are but as they are shown. Sadri Ertem’s story which is analysed in this study is a good example for that.
