Description
From the Nobel Prize-winning novelist and the acclaimed author of My Name is Red—an inspired, thoughtful, and deeply personal book of essays about reading and writing novels.
In this fascinating set of essays, based on the talks he delivered at Harvard University as part of the distinguished Norton Lecture series, Pamuk presents a comprehensive and provocative theory of the novel and the experience of reading. Drawing on Friedrich Schiller’s famous distinction between “naïve” writers—those who write spontaneously—and “sentimental” writers—those who are reflective and aware—Pamuk reveals two unique ways of processing and composing the written word. He takes us through his own literary journey and the beloved novels of his youth to describe the singular experience of reading. Unique, nuanced, and passionate, this book will be beloved by listeners and writers alike.
Ce que les critiques en disent
“Pamuk’s nonfiction voice matches the narrating voice of his novels—grave, thoughtful, wry.” —San Francisco Chronicle
“A full-fledged theory of the novel. . . . His explorations of time and plot, words and objects, and the convolutions of the reader’s mind as he seeks the center of the novel are incomparable.” —Huffington Post, One of the Ten Best Books of 2010
“Anyone who has read Pamuk’s exquisite fiction will be interested in these essays on reading and the art of the novel.” —Plain Dealer
