** PRE-ORDER NIGHTS OF PLAGUE, THE NEW NOVEL FROM ORHAN PAMUK **
Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature 'Engaging, brilliant'
Guardian 'A talkative, tender meditation' Financial Times 'Every
novelist will want to read this' Daily Telegraph What happens
within us when we read a novel? And how does a writer create its
unique effects? In this thoughtful and deeply personal book, Orhan
Pamuk takes us into the worlds of the writer and reader, revealing
their intimate connections. How is it that novels conjure
landscapes so vivid they can make the here-and-now fade away, and
characters so complex we feel we know them beyond the page? With
Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Stendhal, Flaubert and Proust as companions,
Pamuk considers the 'sweet illusion' of the fictional world, and
the hold it exerts upon us. Anyone who has known the pleasure of
becoming immersed in a novel will enjoy, and learn from, this
perceptive and enchanting book.
