Summary/Abstract: Sonsuzluğa Nokta is Hasan Ali Toptaş's first novel. In this novel, the world of Bedran, tired of living in the shadow of his father and leaving the town where he was born and raised, goes to the city, intertwined with loneliness. Bedran's father shows the interest and love he does not show for his children to the cars he constantly buys. Bedran, who started working as a driver in the rescue vehicles office, realizes that he has gradually turned into his father and wants to put an end to it. Bedran becomes paralyzed after this development, which is extremely doubtful whether it was an accident or a suicide attempt, and he is forced to live in bed. The plot in the work proceeds on two interconnected lines. The important event that divides Bedran's life into two is his traffic accident. In the first series of events, Bedran's life is told until the accident, and in the second series of events after the accident. Bedran has become unable to meet even his basic needs while he is tied to the bed. In time, this situation shook his relationship with his wife, his love for Bedran decreased and he started to fill the gap in him in different ways. Bedran ran away from living in the shadow of his father, but was condemned to live in the shadow of his wife. The fact that Bedran was left with a gun at the end of the work while it was doubtful about what the traffic accident happened makes us think that he attempted suicide -again- maybe he died. As of the period he was in, in an environment where political unrest and polarization peaked, Bedran turned only to his own existence. In the novel, Bedran's uneasiness as an individual, his inability to express himself, and his peak internal tension are covered.
