Hope is at the core of humanity. Human existence is understood with hope. Man shapes his position, path and future in the world by hoping. The hopeful and hopeless state of a person affects not only the moment he is in, but also the steps he will take. Many philosophers have included the concept of hope in building their philosophy. In particular, existentialist philosophy benefited from this concept in its efforts to explain and make sense of the human struggle in the world. While hope leads people to good, despair and anxiety take the people to bad. On the other hand, there are also thinkers who approach the situation differently. These thinkers consider that the human struggle is directly connected to the hopeless. According to those thinkers, the struggle in the world is empty and meaningless. When we put all this aside, the hopeful quest of man has become the subject of literature. This shows us that hope is what guides people in many fictional texts. Hopeful people dream. The person who dreams, hopes to realize his dreams. This cycle continues with life and is never ending. For centuries, mankind has survived the worst situations, wars and destruction. Despite this, people did not stop hoping for a moment. There is hope at the heart of the desire to change the world and the present situation. For an author, it is impossible to think of a dreamless and hopeless person. Many authors have used both of these elements which we explained to create their main character. As an example, it is not deniable that the Little Prince has given hope to readers. On the other hand, there is hope at the basis of utopian and dystopic narratives. The hopeful expectation of man has created new worlds, and the hopeless state has destroyed these worlds. While Gabriel Marcel built a metaphysics of hope, Kierkegaard was fed by despair and anxiety. Ecology in fictional texts has been the subject of many studies in recent years. Authors have included non-human beings in their texts and turned them into images. These images can be interpreted in the text, as well as have been intertextual features. For example, Kafka likened man to an insect to criticize the modern world. Livingston's Seagull “Jonathon” tells how a seagull (and therefore a living thing) has achieved its ability to fly high beyond its limits. The concepts that animals and plants symbolize are different. These creatures can have both national and universal qualities. Therefore, how the work is approached is very important. Hasan Ali Toptaş is one of the leading representatives of contemporary Turkish literature. His novels are often associated with the philosophy of existence. The characters created in this direction are open to reading along with the concepts of hope and despair. The novelism of the author is not uniform. Toptaş is a writer who tries to write in different ways. His novels show many features of modernism and postmodernism. On the other hand, one of the elements frequently repeated in the novels of the author is the word bird. In his works, the bird takes place both as a living being and as a motif. It is an element of analogy. Birds, as a living being, are often associated with freedom, because birds have the right to move in the sky in any direction. This gives them the right to escape from any situation. Birds, which are at a height beyond human reach, have affected humans due to their ability to fly. Human beings want to be free like birds, they want to be where they want when they want. On the other hand, birds are creatures that guide people and play a role in many legendary narratives. As can be seen, it is possible to make different interpretations in this context. This study gives different interpretations of the bird motif in the novels of the author.
