Book Description
Istanbul is a city of a million cells, and every cell is an Istanbul unto itself. Below the ancient streets of Istanbul, four prisoners – Demirtay the student, the doctor, Kamo the barber and Uncle Küheylan – sit, awaiting their turn at the hands of their wardens. When they are not subject to unimaginable violence, the condemned tell one another stories about the city, shaded with love and humor, to pass the time. Quiet laughter is their balm, delivered through parables and riddles. Gradually, the prisoners’ underground narrative turns into a narrative of Istanbul itself, and we discover there is as much suffering and hope in the city above-ground as there is in the cells below. Set after a military coup, this poignant novel – translated into twenty languages – is about creation, compassion and ultimately the triumph of the imagination. ‘A writer of passion, memory and heart, Sönmez revives not only the stories of a land but also its bruised conscience.’ Elif Shafak, author of The Bastard of Istanbul
