	BW2/3  +  281963 Tue, 17 Oct 06 04:38 AM Sorry, I never read any of his books. Also I knew nothing about him except that he won the Nobel Prize in literature. I was wondering what Turkey thought about him after he won the most prestige award. Was he expatriated by Turkey?  I guess some of his writing attacked the Turkish goverment so he is in exile now.    BW2/3 Joined on Sat, Oct 22 2005 Contributing Member 1,283 Carpe diem!! Literature

	Can89  +  284307 Sun, 22 Oct 06 04:38 PM Hi i am can from Turkey. Orhan Pamuk is a really perfect writer i think u should get one of his books and read it and when you feel the emotion you will see that i am right. But as u said, some Turkish people dont like him even hate him. They are looking the situation from different views.Orhan Pamuk is a socialist but people should interest with his job, (not his views).Anyway somebody realized his succeed and gived him biggest award. thanks for give a place for Orhan Pamuk in this forum. my msn:flame-in-darkness@hotmail.com Can89 Joined on Sat, Oct 21 2006 Turkey New Member 10 ___________________________________________ w3LL I d0n't kn0w wHy I c4m3 h3r3 t0nigHt I g0t a f33lin' th4t s0m3thing ain't rigHt
