Orhan Pamuk Istanbul's
Š hemis.fr
Feature
Turkey :
Turkish writer Orhan Pamuk who won the literary Nobel prize in 2006 lives on Cihangir hill where he can contemplate the Bosphorus and the everlasting reflections of the great mosques of Istanbul. It is possible that this panorama inspired his work, seen as a bridge between Eastern and Western cultures. Orhan Pamuk’s work has been translated into 40 languages. Often threatened, he has been one of the few brave people to denounce the Armenian genocide. Following in the footsteps of the writer, let’s discover the districts of Beyoglu, Galata, Taksim, Cihangir and Çukurcuma, and the city of Istanbul with all its paradox, charm and many colours.
