However, this did not reconcile with the words in front of me. Initially, it came across as a jumble of very realist descriptions and lists and highly abstract concepts, occasionally in alternating paragraphs. The narrative seemed to hop up and down on one foot, before passing arbitrarily to the other, for a while, and then back again. A Life of Crime I read on, puzzled, then finally I started to realise that I might now have all of the pieces, at which point a picture started to assemble in front of me.

I had done a lot of the work, but the author had placed the pieces there for me, like clues. Turkish author Orhan Pamuk worked like a criminal, leaving enough clues for me to find, so that I could eventually identify the culprit myself. The New Life might be metaphysical, it might be meta-fiction, but it also has many of the qualities of crime fiction. Around chapter 13, it all came together, after which it was a roller-coaster ride.

The last pages just blew me away. Skimming through my notes in order to compose this review, I realised just how subtle and widespread were the clues. For a long time I questioned whether this was a minor work by a Nobel Prize Winner, alternatively did he really deserve the Prize? Having finished, I feel this novel is a major achievement, regardless of where it stands in his ouvre. This was the kind of light within which I could recast myself; I could lose my way in this light; I already sensed in the light the shadows of an existence I had yet to know and embrace… It was with dread that I became aware of the complete transformation of the world around me, and I was overtaken by a feeling of loneliness I had never before experienced — as if I had been stranded in a country where I knew neither the lay of the land nor the language and the customs.

Instead, we learn about it by its effect on its readers. They become converts, though because of its nature, they are secretive. They disengage from mainstream life. From the outside, they appear to be radicalized and subversive.

Conservative political and religious groups feel threatened and start to attack back, one ultra-right group even killing a number of readers. They track down those who are off track. Perhaps this is the way it always is. How are we to know who to side with? Perhaps both sides are equally culpable? And so we read on On the Road, In a Bus The narrator and his friend, Janan Arabic for heart or soul or soul mate , embark on a spiritual journey or odyssey through the Turkish countryside.

Their quest takes them on the road, off the beaten track, away from urbanized Istanbul. They spend months travelling by public bus, trying to find the other realm hinted at in the book. Roads join different people and parts of the country. The bus is a symbol and vehicle of modernity and modernism that drives us toward our destination, our destiny, the future. We start our journey from home, but as soon as we depart, our home is in the past. We are cut off from our former lives, we are cast loose.

The bus cannot take us back home into the past, it can only take us inexorably toward a collision with the future. Just as we seek out spiritual integrity, things start to disintegrate. We fall apart. Rural Turkey is symbolized by Nature in the form of almond, chestnut, walnut and mulberry trees. In contrast, the West pervades Turkey through television, radio, movies, advertising; even railway travel is viewed as an unwelcome, external, alien influence that detracts from tradition.

If today in this town… the virtue of living an ascetic life is considered shameful The Other Side The narrator meets Mehmet, a former lover of Janan, who has also read the book, but turned his back on its message about a brand new world: World shmorld Think of it as tomfoolery perpetrated on children by an old sap. Believe me, at the end there is nothing but death. They kill without mercy…There is nothing to pursue to the end…just a book. Someone sat down and wrote it.

A dream. There is nothing else for you to do, aside from reading and rereading it. Illumination Can it be true that, in our search for enlightenment, we might only find darkness and despair? Can we find our own way out of our predicament? If we get lost, how will we be found? Loved each and every part of this book. I will definitely recommend this book to fiction, asian literature lovers.
