 Event\nPresented by Berkeley Arts + Letters and KPFA Radio\n\nThe Museum of 
 Innocence is Pamuk's first novel since he won the Nobel Prize for 
 Literature in 2006.  A profoundly stirring exploration of the nature of 
 romantic attachment and of the mysterious allure of collecting, the novel 
 plumbs the depths of an Istanbul half Western and half traditional Islamic, 
 its emergent modernity, its vast and dramatic cultural history. This is 
 clearly the greatest achievement so far by the universally acclaimed 
 Turkish author of The Black Book, Snow, Istanbul, and My Name Is Red, plus 
 four other novels and the superb collection of essays, Other Colors. His 
 work has been translated into more than fifty languages, and has won many 
 international honors. \n\n"Orhan Pamuk has made his native city an 
 indispensable literary territory, equal to Dostoevsky's St. Petersburg, 
 Joyce's Dublin, or Proust's Paris-a place where readers from all corners of 
 the world can live another life, just as credible as their own." \n- from 
 the Nobel Presentation Speech\n\n"Pamuk has taken as his great subject the 
 tensions between West and East, religious and secular, in his native 
 Turkey. He writes of these crucial contemporary issues with the acuity and 
 depth of a Dostoevsky or Tolstoy."\n
