Description:
In his first appearance at the Poetry Center, Orhan Pamuk reads from The Museum of Innocence, his first novel since winning the Nobel Prize in 2006. "Pamuk gives us what all novelists give us at their best: the truth," wrote Margaret Atwood. "Not the truth of statistics, but the truth of human experience at a particular place, in a particular time. And as with all great literature, you feel at moments not that you are examining him, but that he is examining you."
