THE MUSEUM OF INNOCENCE ORHAN PAMUK
THE MUSEUM OF INNOCENCE ORHAN PAMUK
In May 2007, Pamuk was among the jury members at the Cannes Film Festival headed by British director Stephen Frears. He completed his latest novel, Masumiyet M�zesi (The Museum of Innocence) in the summer of 2008. This was the first novel he published since receiving the 2006 Nobel Prize in Literature. Pamuk held an actual Museum of Innocence, consisting of everyday odds and ends the writer has amassed, at an Istanbul house he purchased. In both Snow and the Museum of Innocence, Pamuk describes tragic love stories, where men fall in love with beautiful women at first sight. It has been noted that Pamuk�s portrayals of women and the reasons men fall in love with them are powerful in their intensity, yet superficial in the way these love stories originate. Pamuks heroes tend to be educated men who fall tragically in love with beauties, but who are doomed to a decrepit loneliness.

MY NAME IS RED ORHAN PAMUK

SNOW ORHAN PAMUK
SNOW ORHAN PAMUK
Pamuks followed this with novel Kar, published in 2002 (English translation: Snow, 2004). Set in the border city of Kars, it explores the conflict between Islamism and Westernism in modern Turkey. Snow follows Ka, an expatriate Turkish poet, as he wanders around the snowy Kars and gets caught up in the muddle of aimless Islamist, MPs, headscarf advocates, secularists, and a number of factions who die and kill in the name of highly contradictory ideals. The New York Times listed Snow as one of its Ten Best Books of 2004.

THE WHITE CASTLE ORHAN PAMUK
THE WHITE CASTLE ORHAN PAMUK
From a Turkish writer who has been compared with Borges, Nabokov, and DeLillo comes a dazzling novel that is at once a captivating work of historical fiction and a sinuous treatise on the enigma of identity and the relations between East and West. In the 17th century, a young Italian scholar sailing from Venice to Naples is taken prisoner and delivered to Constantinople. There he falls into the custody of a scholar known as Hoja--"master"--a man who is his exact double. In the years that follow, the slave instructs his master in Western science and technology, from medicine to pyrotechnics. But Hoja wants to know more: why he and his captive are the persons they are and whether, given knowledge of each others most intimate secrets, they could actually exchange identities. Set in a world of magnificent scholarship and terrifying savagery, The White Castle is a colorful and intricately patterned triumph of the imagination.
