COPY LINK URL ON DESCRIPTION

From a Turkish writer who has been compared with Borges,

Nabokov, and DeLillo comes a dazzling novel that is at once a

captivating work of historical fiction and a sinuous treatise on

the enigma of identity and the relations between East and

West. In the 17th century, a young Italian scholar sailing from

Venice to Naples is taken prisoner and delivered to

Constantinople. There he falls into the custody of a scholar

known as Hoja--master--a man who is his exact double. In the

years that follow, the slave instructs his master in Western

science and technology, from medicine to pyrotechnics. But

Hoja wants to know more: why he and his captive are the

persons they are and whether, given knowledge of each

other's most intimate secrets, they could actually exchange

identities. Set in a world of magnificent scholarship and

terrifying savagery, The White Castle is a colorful and

intricately patterned triumph of the imagination. Translated

from the Turkish by Victoria Holbrook.
