Description
In these essays, based on the author's Charles Eliot Norton lectures from 2009 at Harvard University, Orhan Pamuk examines the relationship between author and reader, discusses the distinction between "naive" and "sentimental" writing, and considers the fundamental elements of a novel--character, plot, time, setting--that tie a reader to a fictional world.
