by Ahmed Hamdi Tanpinar (Author), Ruth Christie (Translator)
In 'Five Cities' ('Beş Şehir'), Ahmet Hamdi Tanpinar focuses on cities significant in Anatolian history and his own emotional life. Part history, part autobiography, part poetic meditation on time and memory, 'Five Cities' is Proustian in style with a tension between a backward-looking melancholy and a concern for the unpredictable future of the author's country.
