"Hiç Büyümeyecek Çocuğun Latin Amerika Seyahatnamesi" is a delightful book by Oğulcan Temiz about his adventures in Latin America. The 342-page book is filled with his experiences and thoughts, giving a unique Turkish view of the culture, people, and places he encountered.

The author was driven by a sense of disillusionment with his university experience and a desire to explore new horizons. He planned the Latin America trip as a new dream to pursue after graduation. His desire to leave a meaningful memory for the future motivated him to document his travels in this book.

The book is filled with historical and political insights, along with his philosophical thoughts. It also explores themes like self-discovery and chasing dreams. He enjoys connecting with different cultures and environments. Through personal stories, observations, and reflections on the diverse landscapes and people he meets, the narrative offers an engaging journey.

The title, "Latin America Travelogue of the Child Who Will Never Grow Up," reflects a kid discovering the world. It shows Oğulcan's ideas about happiness, the meaning of life, and keeping a youthful spirit. These thoughts pushed him to write about his trip in a way that would inspire and touch others.

His background reveals a deep appreciation for exploration, both physical and intellectual. His interest in music, nature, and the arts also means that his travels were not just about visiting new places but about experiencing and reflecting on the world in a holistic manner. This multifaceted approach to travel and life is reflected in the rich, detailed narrative of his book.

The writer compares his life to prison life and searches for freedom on an 8-month Latin America trip, which ends in finding himself in a bigger prison. It is a concrete form of the search for something useful for society, in order not to escape anymore from it. A delightful work to read by the young writer, who was born near the end of the 20th century, blending Latin American travel with his life adventure and the works he has read.
