I am currently reading My Name Is Red. This is a unique and intriguing story. I love how the author entertwines the story portrayed by illustrations and that of the characters in the book. I would love to hear any comments by anyone else who has read this wonderful book.

I enjoyed the book as well and appreciated its complexity and clever construction ( the narration of each chapter by a different voice was so interesting!). I appreciate books like this that interweave cultural aspects with a good story, in this case one which concerns relationships between people. I am thinking about reading another one of Pamuk's books, maybe Snow to follow up as I have heard that a lot of readers prefer that book to Red.
