Sinopsis
Populated with vibrant characters, The Bastard of Istanbul is the story of two families, one Turkish and one Armenian American, and their struggle to forge their unique identities against the backdrop of Turkey's violent history. Filled with humor and understanding, this exuberant, dramatic novel is about memory and forgetting, about the tension between the need to examine the past and the desire to erase it.

I found two wonderful quirky families, one Turkish in Istanbul and one Armenian in San Fransisco. How their lives, histories, loves, anxieties, past and present were all tied together was extremely complicated. More than most of them would ever know. This is a multi-generational story of secrets and lies, anger and recriminations. And this is a wonderful, colorful, intense story that let me see, hear and smell Istanbul as each family member moved through it. I highly recommend this book for those who like a complicated, intricate multicultural read.
