Product Information
From the Nobel Prize winner and acclaimed author of My Name is Red comes an unforgettable novel about a Turkish family gathering in the shadow of an impending military coup that's "threaded through with ideas about history, religion, memory, class and politics" ( The New York Times Book Review ). In a crumbling mansion in a gentrified former fishing village on the Turkish coast, the widow Fatma awaits the annual visit of her grandchildren: Faruk, a dissipated historian; his sensitive leftist sister, Nilgün; and Metin, a high schooler drawn to the fast life of the nouveaux riche. Bedridden, Fatma is attended by her faithful servant Recep, a dwarf--and her late husband's illegitimate son. Mistress and servant share memories, and grievances, from the past. But the arrival of Recep's cousin, Hasan, a fervent right-wing nationalist, threatens to draw the family into the political cataclysm arising from Turkey's tumultuous century-long struggle for modernity. Written in the 1980s but never before published in English, this spellbinding novel is a stunning addition to the works of Nobel Prize-winning author Orhan Pamuk.

Reviews
Praise for Silent House: "Inspired and impassioned…A microcosm of a country on the verge of a coup…Pamuk has a flattering faith in his reader' intelligence…The book [is] threaded through with ideas of history, religion, memory class and politics. But it never seems didactic because the reader comes to realize that these reflections are aspects of the inner life: plausible components of the characters' psyches. I was glad to be transported to a seaside town in Turkey, to meet this odd family and their neighbors, all of whom seem to be living in several places at once: in the present and the past, in history, in everyday reality and in the simultaneously limitless and constricted worlds of their own minds…The reading experience is so very pleasurable." -Francine Prose, New York Times Book Review "Propulsive…in this quiet unassuming way does a wrenching story unfold, until an unexpected and hair-raising turn…the author's most accessible novel to date…the work of a great engineer." -Marie Arana, Washington Post "Impressive…It proves once and for all that Pamuk is truly one of the world's most versatile fiction writers, no matter the language in which he is read…Despite the specificity of the novel's setting, the characters' respective struggles are universal; they could be any family, anywhere, at any time." -Jason Diamond, New York Observer "Pamuk builds a multi-faceted panorama distinguished by his customary intellectual richness and breadth." - Kirkus Reviews, A New York Times Notable Book "[A] superb novel, which grips the reader and refuses to let go." -- The New Yorker "Propulsive. . . . Reveals a family that is as complicated and volatile as [their] country. . . . The work of a great engineer." -- The Washington Post "Inspired and impassioned. . . . Threaded through with ideas about history, religion, memory, class and politics. . . . The reading experience is so very pleasurable." -- The New York Times Book Review "Luminous and stylistically inventive. . . . Brilliantly captures the disorder, nostalgia and hope of a society struggling with violence and self-definition." -- San Francisco Chronicle "An excellent introduction to a body of work that is worthy of its 2006 Nobel Prize. . . . Pamuk summons empathy." -- Milwaukee Journal Sentinel "Impressive. . . . Proves once and for all that [Pamuk] is truly one of the world's most versatile fiction writers, no matter the language in which he is read. . . . [A] subtle portrayal of the slow-burning fire of Turkey's revolution." -- The New York Observer "A poised and hugely impressive grasp of human variety." -- The Sunday Times (London) "Artfully managed. . . . Illuminate[s] some of the sources of Islamist ideology, and sketch[es] the problems of Turkey. . . . Neither a polemic nor a history. It's a satisfying work of fiction by one of the best novelists writing today." -- The Washington Times "An excellent introduction to [Pamuk's] Nobel Prize-winning body of work." -- The Miami Herald "With its modernist multi-perspective narrative, the novel is full of arresting and unforgettable literary moments. . . . Psychologically gripping. . . . Silent House is both a highly readable fiction and an unsparing portrait of the Turkish intellectual class." -- The Independent (London) "A poignant portrayal of everyday life in a 1980s Turkish seaside resort. . . . Pamuk transports us to a pivotal moment in his homeland's history--and maps the emotional geography of modern Turkey." -- National Geographic Traveler (Book of the Month) "Fanatical politics might empty our heads, but it is literature that returns humanity to the silent house." -- The Daily Beast "The beginnings of a great writer. . . . 30 years on, the novel feels doubly prescient." -- The Guardian ( London) "A powerful, assured and engaging multiple-voiced narrative. It provides exciting insights into the subsequent career of a consistently original novelist. . . . English-language readers now have the opportunity to experience early Pamuk; it has been well worth the wait." -- The Irish Times (Dublin) "Pamuk builds a multifaceted panorama distinguished by his customary intellectual richness and breadth." -- Kirkus Reviews, Praise for Silent House: "Inspired and impassioned…A microcosm of a country on the verge of a coup…Pamuk has a flattering faith in his reader' intelligence…The book [is] threaded through with ideas of history, religion, memory class and politics.

Silent House is both a highly readable fiction and an unsparing portrait of the Turkish intellectual class." -Alev Adil, The Independent (UK) "Spellbinding…luminous…rich in brooding memories of a bygone era but the experience is elevating rather than oppressive. The events and characters in this novel may belong to a particular region and time, but their angst is universal…That is a measure of the greatness of his craft, something one finds in Anton Chekov." -Shreekant Sambrani, Business Standard (India) "The beginnings of a great writer… Silent House illuminates the recent historical pressures, and 30 years on, the novel feels doubly prescient… A novelist prescient enough to publish [this] in 1983 proved himself fully deserving of the call from the Swedish Academy in 2006." -Mark Lawson, The Guardian (UK) "Impressive…It proves once and for all that Pamuk is truly one of the world's most versatile fiction writers, no matter the language in which he is read…Despite the specificity of the novel's setting, the characters' respective struggles are universal; they could be any family, anywhere, at any time." -Jason Diamond, New York Observer "Pamuk builds a multi-faceted panorama distinguished by his customary intellectual richness and breadth." - Kirkus Reviews, "[A] superb novel, which grips the reader and refuses to let go." -- The New Yorker "Propulsive. . . .
