I rarely finish a book and think I must reread it, but that's how I feel about this one. The basic story is about a young musician who attempts suicide by jumping off a bridge in Istanbul. He survives, but loses his memory. He grasps at the few things he does remember, but his understanding of time is out of whack. The book is political, in the sense that the entire history of Turkey is political, and while the book is short, it covers a lot of ground.
