MUSEUM OF INNOCENCE
“It was the happiest moment of my life, I didn’t know. Orhan Pamuk’s recent novel the Museum of Innocence on which he has been working for six years begins with these words… This colorful and fabulous novel will not only challenge the reader’s thoughts about love, but also those about marriage, sex, passion, family, friendship, and happiness. The book tells the story of Kemal, son of a wealthy Istanbulite family, and his poor and distant relative Füsun, starting in 1975 and continuing up to the present. Beyond a fascinating and unforgettable love story told with an abundance of characters and incidents revealing the human soul’s depths, the reader will also enjoy details about Turkey’s social and cultural history in the past decades as well as the beauties of the author’s native city Istanbul on the background…
