According to the approach of its author, being able to define utopia with concepts such as unattainability , dreams , ideal social order , and happiness expands the meaning of it. A utopia resists the political atmosphere and social relations of its period and introduces an ideal social order that is opposed to the status quo. Published in 1975, Raziye is a novel by Melih Cevdet Anday. The novel shows many similarities to a Utopian world, reflecting the urge to escape from a restless atmosphere and search for an ideal life. The novel is about an uncle trying to change his adopted gypsy daughter into a noble soul while devising an ideal life to improve the society he lives in.

In this study, using character analyses of the uncle, the nephew and Raziye, I will address the collapse of an idealized life and the conflicts between dreams and reality, between modern life and primitive life, and between intellectuals and society.
