[ 4.0 stars ] "The Black Book a little bit of a difficult book, for a couple of reasons. I want to mark them out so readers can see the obstacles and not let them get in the way of what is in the end well worth the effort.(1) For me the book is somewhat imbalanced. The `column' chapters read like treats set in among the occasionally bland meal of the Galip story. This is especially problematic in that the se ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 1.0 stars ] "This book was our latest book group selection. Sounded like it SHOULD have been good, but it was so boring I couldn't finish, and I don't give up easily. Perhaps his other work is better, but I don't think I'll ever find out, being too scared off by this one. One longs for the directness of vintage Elmore Leonard--like GET TO THE POINT. Thin little plot and endless circuitous pass ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 1.0 stars ] "I have read the Maureen Freely translation from 2006 which promised to make Pamuk's early novel less opaque than the original English translation. Glad I did not attempt the first one because this more recent one was quite difficult to muddle through. It is interersting to see Pamuk's earlier fascination with themes that have run through later works: innocence (I think naivete' migh ..." Courtesy by Amazon

[ 3.0 stars ] "I have never felt this relieved and elated to push through the last page of a book in a long time.This book in my mind is a mini-epic around a very simple story. But told with intensity and passion, through the eyes of Galip, a lawyer in Istanbul.There is not much of a plot, but still its a mystery book that is written indulgently through the eyes of the protagonist (Gallip) who goes in search for ..."

[ 1.0 stars ] "Of course, we appreciate Orhan Pamuk's defense of freedom of expression and his viewpoints on the Armenian genocide or the war in Iraq.But, this work is another story.In `Other Colours', Orhan Pamuk states that `novels are only valuable as the questions they raise about the shape and nature of life.'The main character in this book looks after his wife who left him apparently with his h ..."
