This collection of new essays brings together scholarly
examinations of a writer who -- despite the prestige that the Nobel
Prize has earned him -- remains controversial with respect to his
place in the literary tradition of his home country. This is in
part because the positioning of Turkey itself in relation to the
cultural divide between East and West has been the subject of a
debate going back to the beginnings of the modern Turkish state and
earlier. The present essays, written mostly by literary scholars,
range widely across Pamuks novelistic oeuvre, dealing with how the
writer, often adding an allegorical level to the personages
depicted in his experimental narratives, portrays tensions such as
those between Western secularism and traditional Islam and
different conceptions of national identity.
