 | | He is Orhan Pamuk, the writer, the novelist and not simply Orhan Pamuk, the individual, when he deals with, or ponders on a historical, political, social, aesthetic or merely existential question. |
 | | They are, in the words of Frederic Jameson, "national political allegories", in the sense that they present a general and historical vision of the society to which Orhan Pamuk belongs; but in form and technique they possess the entire arsenal of the post-modern novel born in the West. |
 | | Orhan Pamuk has been an innovator in the context of the Turkish novel in many ways, but I would like to dwell on one -very basic- trait of his work. |
