Synopsis "My Name is red "

The Sultan secretly commissions a great book: a celebration of his life and the Ottoman Empire, to be illuminated by the best artists of the day - in the European manner. In Istanbul at a time of violent fundamentalism, however, this is a dangerous proposition. Even the illustrious circle of artists are not allowed to know for whom they are working. But when one of the miniaturists is murdered, their Master has to seek outside help. Did the dead painter fall victim to professional rivalry, romantic jealousy or religious terror? With the Sultan demanding an answer within three days, perhaps the clue lies somewhere in the half-finished pictures . . . From Turkey's winner of the Nobel Prize and author of Istanbul and The Museum of Innocence, this novel is a thrilling murder mystery set amid the splendour of Istanbul and the Ottoman Empire. Part fantasy and part philosophical puzzle, My Name is Red is also a stunning meditation on love, artistic devotion and the tensions between East and West.

Orhan Pamuk es un novelista turco galardonado con el Premio Nobel de Literatura en 2006. Nacido en Estambul en 1952, creció en una familia secular y acomodada, una experiencia que influyó en su exploración de la identidad turca y el choque entre Oriente y Occidente. Aunque inicialmente estudió arquitectura, la abandonó a los 23 años para dedicarse por completo a la escritura.
Su fama internacional creció con novelas como El castillo blanco (1985) y El libro negro (1990). En 2003, ganó el Premio Internacional IMPAC por Me llamo Rojo. La Academia Sueca le otorgó el Nobel "en la búsqueda del alma melancólica de su ciudad natal, [Pamuk] ha descubierto nuevos símbolos para el choque y el entrelazamiento de las culturas".
A lo largo de su carrera, ha defendido la libertad de expresión, lo que lo llevó a enfrentar cargos en su país por hacer comentarios sobre la masacre de un millón de armenios, los cuales fueron desestimados en 2006. Además de escritor, ha enseñado en prestigiosas universidades estadounidenses. Su obra, traducida a más de 60 idiomas, lo ha convertido en el novelista turco más conocido de su generación.
