Nilgün Marmara

Her notes other than her two diaries also got released in 2017 by Everest Publications with the title Papers.

Regarding the accusations brought against him, Kağan Önal said, "However, Nilgün was supposed to be treated, but she was running away from the doctor. She was not at home when the doctor came to visit her when she should have been. The doctor had waited. When she came, they talked... The doctor said to me, 'Your job is very difficult! She needs to be treated but she is very intelligent and cultured, meaning it is one of the most difficult cases...' Because to heal, she should not be engaging in intellectual activities. They were going to drown her with medication and she was going to become numb. In moderately cultured and intelligent cases, this disease would usually appear in their 20s, and lithium treatment for it would result in success. However, Nilgün she was not of this type. Being treated, being convinced of this, being satisfied with the treatment were all separate problems. Therefore, she did not receive treatment. On the day that she died she had promised me that she would start the treatment again ." The book titled Red Brown Notebook, published after Nilgün Marmara's death, created a great controversy. Although the book says that Nilgün Marmara published her diaries, the only quote about her time in Libya was "Kağan is a dirty lecherous piece of shit, he goes to bars every day." and the book's biggest problem was how it portrayed her "Due to the way the book was edited and how omitting it was, Nilgün Marmara was falsely portrayed to be someone who is in great pain, only thinking of death and seldom poetry, has a sullen face, is cynical, and consequently was just her suicide, has not lived, basically someone who has not existed up until her suicide" It was published by Everest Publishing in 2016 with the following back cover letter, including the facsimile of the diary:
