The Bookering

The magnificent Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi

From Russia with... a shudder.

"If this were the beginning of a poem, he would have called the thing he felt inside him the silence of snow."

Orhan Pamuk's The Museum of Innocence is one of the most heart-wrenchingly gorgeous novels I've read. When Kemal loses the love of his life to another, he becomes a compulsive collector of the things and objects that chart his love story from and to the woman he loves - he collects everyday things like keys,salt shakers, cigarette butts, ashtrays, and jewellery - reliving the memories through these mementos. The Museum Of Innocence is not an easy read, but one that is very rewarding. And Pamuk- he writes like a dream!
