«İstanbul: Hatıralar ve Şehir» is Orhan Pamuk's memoir, published by İletişim Yayınları in paperback (360 pages, in Turkish).
In this memoir, Orhan Pamuk revisits his childhood and youth in Istanbul up to the age of twenty-two. The city of the 1950s appears in cobbled streets, fires, ruined wooden mansions and the transformation of one culture into another; the author's family memories merge with the collective melancholy he calls «hüzün».
The work was originally published in 2003; this Turkish edition appeared in 2006. The cover bears the mark of Orhan Pamuk's 2006 Nobel Prize in Literature.
For readers of memoirs, Turkish literature and urban history, as well as for those who follow Orhan Pamuk's work.
Ferit Orhan Pamuk is a Turkish novelist, screenwriter, academic, and recipient of the 2006 Nobel Prize in Literature. One of Turkey's most prominent novelists, he has sold over 13 million books in 63 languages, making him the country's best-selling writer.
