I'm absolutely glad I stumbled onto this book. Not the type I'd normally pick up but being in Istanbul for a weekend motivated me to go for one of Pamuk's book.
The rich, deep and realistic tapestry he weaves of both human and urban development is bound to stay with you days and days after you put this book down.
An absolutely enthralling read, one that creeps in slowly and becomes more and more meaningful in its description of regular human beings and their (extra) ordinary lives.
