Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Pamuk delivers a new novel filled with headlong intensity and mesmerizing prose. Narrator Osman, a university student in Istanbul, lays a spell on the reader with the opening words: ''I read a book one day and my whole life was changed.'' This book, which opens the door to the promise of a new life, affects Osman to the point that he abandons his studies, turns his back on home and family and embarks on a wondrous odyssey. Description in Spanish: ''Hasta el inesperado momento en que abrio el libro, la vida de Osman se reducia a asistir a clase de Ingenieria y regresar a la casa que compartia con su madre. La lectura y un tiroteo en las calles nevadas de Estambul convirtieron al joven heroe en un viajero nocturno cuya existencia nunca volvio a ser la misma. Osman recorre un inmenso pais acompanado de una mujer que, por azar, dejo el libro sobre la mesa de un cafe. Una mujer que ama a otro hombre. El mismo a quien estan buscando, el unico que comprende el poder del libro. Orhan Pamuk, un autor comparado con Nabokov, Borges o Umberto Eco, nos aporta la creatividad y la vision de un hombre de hoy que vive y escribe en la frontera de dos mundos: Occidente y el Islam.''
