SUMMARY:risc book club: The Museum of Innocence
DESCRIPTION:By Orhan Pamuk – Turkey. The Museum of Innocence – set in Istanbul between 1975 and today – tells the story of Kemal\, the son of one of Istanbul’s richest families\, and of his obsessive love for a poor and distant relation\, the beautiful Fusun\, who is a shop-girl in a small boutique. In his romantic pursuit of Füsun over the next eight years\, Kemal compulsively amasses a collection of objects that chronicles his lovelorn progress-a museum that is both a map of a society and of his heart. The novel depicts a panoramic view of life in Istanbul as it chronicles this long\, obsessive love affair; and Pamuk beautifully captures the identity crisis experienced by Istanbul’s upper classes that find themselves caught between traditional and westernised ways of being. 752pp
