Description:
"Snow" by Orhan Pamuk and Guneli Gun is a captivating novel that transports readers to the year 1992. The story follows Ka, a poet and political exile, as he returns to Turkey in his new role as a journalist. His assignment leads him to the small and enigmatic city of Kars, located on the Turkish border.
As Ka arrives, the snow begins to fall rapidly, and all the roads leading in and out of the city become impassable. Kars is a city filled with mystery and troubling reports of suicide, particularly among young religious women who are forbidden to wear their headscarves. The backdrop is a city on the brink of political change, with Islamists poised to win local elections.
Amidst this snow-covered landscape and a sense of universal suspicion, Ka finds himself falling in love with the beautiful and radiant Ipek, who has recently divorced. As the story unfolds, readers are drawn into a world of blanketing snowfall and escalating religious and political violence. Ka is pursued by terrorism, and Kars itself is deteriorating under the shadow of Europe.
"Snow" is a novel that delves into the spiritual fragility of the non-Western world, its complex feelings toward the West, and its underlying fury. With touches of sly humor and cerebral suspense, the book explores themes of faith, politics, and the human condition. It's a thought-provoking and relevant work that resonates with our present moment, offering readers a deep and immersive literary experience.
