What They're Saying
Critics Review
”‘This evocative book succeeds at both its tasks. It is one of the most touching childhood memoirs I have read in a very long time; and it makes me yearn - more than any glossy tourist brochure could possibly do - to be once again in Istanbul.’ Noel Malcom, Sunday Telegraph ‘An extraordinary and transcendentally beautiful book… It is a long time since I have read a book of such crystalline originality, or one that moved me so much.’ Katie Hickman”
