Guardian Bookshop Notes:

Set in Istanbul between 1975 and the present day, this tells the story of Kemal, the son of one of Istanbul's richest families, and his love for his poor, distant relation Fusun. 'We in the West can only feel gratitude that such a novelist as Pamuk exists, to act as a bridge between our culture and that of a heritage quite as rich as our own' Tom Holland, "Telegraph"
