Orhan Pamuk, 2011

Date read: 11/4/24


The protagonist is murdered halfway through the novel. The rest of the novel illustrates the choices he made that lead to it. A fascinating way to tell a story and a brilliant story told.


This novel is about the religious and social tensions and coups in Turkey in the 1990s. It was very sad, as so many novels are, and well done. I liked this much more than his previous novel, My Name is Red.
