Orhan Pamuk is a renowned Turkish writer, winner of numerous national and international awards, including the Nobel Prize in Literature for "finding the soul of his melancholic city." Pamuk's new novel, My Strange Thoughts, which he has been working on for the past six years, is perhaps the most "Istanbulian" of them all. Its action spans more than forty years, from 1969 to 2012. The protagonist Mevlüt works on the streets of Istanbul, watching as the streets fill with new people, the city gains and loses new and old buildings, and poor people come from Anatolia to work. As he watches the coups take place, the authorities replace each other, Mevlüt wanders the streets on winter evenings wondering what makes him different from other people, why he has strange thoughts about everything in the world, and who his beloved, to whom he has been writing letters for the past three years, really is.
