I plan on starting with Istanbul because, like you, I have visited the city and absolutely LOVED it. I would love to go on a tour with Pamuk and in that way bring back all my memories of that fascinating city!<BR/><BR/>I have read his "My Name is Red", but I have to be truthful and say I didn't really like it. I will say, however, I learned a lot from it. It's a worthy read if you can make it to the end.Lotus Readshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02081192215823615529noreply@blogger.com
