Product information
  • In Istanbul, Orhan Pamuk transforms the first twenty-two years of his life into a novel of growth and maturation. Istanbul - Memories and the City, which is the story of the author's childhood and early youth and family history, and the story of Istanbul's transformation from an imperial capital to a city full of ruins and sadness in the early 20th century, is not only the book that solidified Pamuk's reputation as an Istanbul writer, but also the whole world. One of the most profound books written about the soul of a city in literature.

    Pamuk tells about his childhood and youth...

    "I felt this break in my soul, I was alarmed by my approaching loneliness, and afraid that the darkness I was falling into would become a way of life, I decided to be like everyone else: For a while when I was seventeen or eighteen years old, I was in a community that made everyone laugh, joked at every opportunity, got along with everyone in a friendly, even vagabond way." I managed to look like a man... Why did I have to grit my teeth, make an effort, and then hate myself for posing in order to do things that everyone else does without worrying too much?

    The story, which starts from the author's first feeling of himself as "I" to his mother, father and family, opens to the streets of Istanbul as a source of sadness and happiness. While exploring the streets of Istanbul of the 1950s, the cobblestone streets, the burned-down wooden mansions, and the difficulties of the disappearance of an old culture and the birth of a new one from its ashes and ruins, through the eyes of today's great novelist, we also see the formation of Pamuk's spiritual world quickly, as if reading a detective novel. We are watching... In this original and unique work, there is that unity of spirit and emotion specific to books that we cannot put down while reading.
    Photographs chosen by Orhan Pamuk from tens of thousands of frames taken by Istanbul's great photographers, especially Ara Güler, and from his own personal album accompany the story.

    "The most unforgettable, saddest and most wonderful book ever written about a city."
    The San Diego Union-Tribune

    "Dear Orhan Pamuk, you have made Istanbul an indispensable literary city, such as Dostoyevsky's St. Petersburg, Joyce's Dublin and Proust's Paris, where readers from all corners of the world can get to know them as if they were living their own lives and lead a second life." !”
