From the Nobel Prize winner and acclaimed author of My Name is Red—a brilliantly unconventional mystery of a missing wife, and a provocative meditation on identity.
“A glorious flight of dark, fantastic invention.” —The Washington Post
Galip is a lawyer living in Istanbul. His wife, the detective novel-loving Ruya, has disappeared. Could she have left him for her ex-husband or Celâl, a popular newspaper columnist? But Celâl, too, seems to have vanished. As Galip investigates, he finds himself assuming the enviable Celâl's identity, wearing his clothes, answering his phone calls, even writing his columns. Galip pursues every conceivable clue, but the nature of the mystery keeps changing, and when he receives a death threat, he begins to fear the worst.
With its cascade of beguiling stories about Istanbul, The Black Book is a brilliantly unconventional mystery, and a provocative meditation on identity. For Turkish literary readers it is the cherished cult novel in which Orhan Pamuk found his original voice, but it has largely been neglected by English-language listeners. Now, in Maureen Freely’s beautiful translation, they, too, may encounter all its riches.

John Lee, who always reads Pamuk, is one of the very best Audible performers; he seems to "get" the world of Pamuk, Istanbul and the rich history, Islamic metaphysics and wonderful tales of that world. "The Black Book" is, on one of its many levels, the "Thousand and One Nights" for smart, adventuresome readers. Listen to it!
