Paperback. Etat : Very Good. The Museum of Innocence - set in Istanbul between 1975 and today - tells the story of Kemal, the son of one of Istanbul's richest families, and of his obsessive love for a poor and distant relation, the beautiful Fusun, who is a shop-girl in a small boutique. In his romantic pursuit of Fusun over the next eight years, Kemal compulsively amasses a collection of objects that chronicles his lovelorn progress-a museum that is both a map of a society and of his heart. The novel depicts a panoramic view of life in Istanbul as it chronicles this long, obsessive love affair; and Pamuk beautifully captures the identity crisis experienced by Istanbul's upper classes that find themselves caught between traditional and westernised ways of being. Orhan Pamuk's first novel since winning the Nobel Prize is a stirring love story and exploration of the nature of romance. Pamuk built The Museum of Innocence in the house in which his hero's fictional family lived, to display Kemal's strange collection of objects associated with Fusun and their relationship. The house opened to the public in 2012 in the Beyoglu district of Istanbul. 'Pamuk has created a work concerning romantic love worthy to stand in the company of Lolita, Madame Bovary and Anna Karenina.' --Financial Times. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Cloth. Etat : Near Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Near Fine. First Edition First UK Edition. Hardcover. First Edition.The Museum of Innocence. A. Novel. Winner of the Nobel Prize. Very slight foxing to edge. Translated from the Turkish by Maureen Freely. It is a perfect spring in 1975, Istanbul. Kemal, heir to one of the town's wealthiest families, is about to become engaged to Sibel, from another aristocratic family, when he encounters Fusun, a beautiful shopgirl, and a distant relation. As they break the taboo of virginity, a rift opens between Kemal and his lovinglky described world of the westernized families of Istanbu with their opulent parties and clubs, society gossip, dining-room rituals, picnics, their mansions on the Bosphorus infused with the melancholy of decay. For nine years Kemal will find excuses to visit the other Istanbul, a house in the impoverished backstreets that Fusum shares with her parents, enjoying the consolation of middle-class life at a dinner table in front of the television. His love for his distant relative will take him to the seedy film circles of Istanbul, cheap bars, sad hotels, a society of small men with big dreams and bigger failures. 536 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences.
