The stunningly illustrated notebooks of the Nobel prizewinning writer, translated into English for the first time.
WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE
'One of the world's finest living writers.' Independent
'In this world of forgeries, where some might be in danger of losing their faith in literature, Pamuk is the real thing.' Savkar Altinel, Observer
'Orhan Pamuk is the sort of writer for whom the Nobel Prize was invented.' Daily Telegraph
Every day for over a decade, Orhan Pamuk has written and drawn in his notebooks. Translated into English for the first time, these stunning snapshots of his life and creative process are a wonderful accompaniment to his bestselling works of fiction.
They include daily events and reflections, dialogues with his imagined characters, notes on his works-in-progress, his experience of writer's block and the unfolding of his difficulties with the current Turkish government. Each entry is illustrated in the author's uniquely idiosyncratic and charming style.
