Gruaja e fotografit, Enkelejd Lamaj (free ebook)

About the book

Set within a once-stately apartment block in the heart of Istanbul, this novel telles the story of Bonbon Palace, built by a Russian emigre for his wife at the end of the Tsarist regime. The building is now sadly dilapidated, flea-infested and home to ten very different individuals and families.

Shafak uses the narrative structure of A thosanda and One Nights to construct a story-within-a-story.  

Some of the inhabitants of the building include Ethel, a lapsed Jew in search of true love and the sad and beautiful Blue Mistress whose personal secret is just one of many hidden within the confines of the building.

If you love Istanbul or want to know more about the city this novel will speak to your heart.
