A Strangeness in My Mind

A Strangeness in My Mind by Orhan Pamuk
599 pages

Long time since I've read a novel this good! Love the connections between marriage and vocation, religion and family, the struggle to make ends meet and happiness, city and village. These themes are wonderfully connected in the life and loves of a boza seller who moved to Istanbul at age 10 and came to a keen awareness of the meaning of love in his mid 50s. Marvelous!
