Orhan Pamuk wrote a devastating portrait of the social contradictions in an impoverished provincial town, and its economic situation. But he chose to do so in a postmodern form, through the puzzling format of an investigation into the writings of a self-centered poet visiting the town. This rather hermetic aspect of the novel is harder to read than the parts that turn outward.
