Item description
WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE
An epic and playful mystery of passion, fear, scandal and murder, from one of history's master storytellers.
'Orhan Pamuk is the sort of writer for whom the Nobel Prize was invented.' Daily Telegraph
'Pamuk is the real thing.' Observer
'One of the world's finest living writers.' Independent
'Essential reading for our times.' Margaret Atwood
'Everyone should read Pamuk.' New Statesman
1901. Night draws in.
With the stealth of a spy vessel, the royal ship Aziziye approaches the famous island vistas of Mingheria, the twenty-ninth state of the ailing Ottoman Empire. The ship carries Princess Pakize, the daughter of a deposed sultan, her doctor husband, and the Royal Chemist, Bonkowski Pasha. Not all of them will survive the weeks ahead. There are rumours of plague - rumours some in power will try to suppress.
But plague is not the only killer. Mingheria is on the cusp of catastrophe, and the future of a fragile empire is at stake.
'A wry meditation on nationalism and identity, on history and myth, on science and superstition, delivered with Orhan Pamuk's trademark storytelling flair.' Financial Times
'A tale of spies, conspiracy and murder . . . full of vivid characters.' Independent

About us
In 2002, World of Books was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet, and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. Since then, we've grown into a global pioneer, dedicated to helping people read more and waste less.
Through the World of Books brand, customers can now buy and sell with us! We provide affordable, preloved books to book lovers all around the world, while also giving people the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet by trading in their unwanted books and media for cash.
Through the B2B side of our business we've developed technology to help charities sell in bulk, meaning they can clear much needed floor space and make money for great causes at the same time.
A new book will be sold once but their stories can be enjoyed by more than one owner. After all, a story doesn't change because it's been read before!Our Sustainable Work

We're a circular economy, for-profit company that protects the planet and supports charities by helping people reuse books, DVDs, CDs, games and more! That's why we've been awarded B Corp status - meaning we're a business that meets the highest standard of social and environmental performance, public transparency and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.
