HTML:<b>Notable International Crime Novel of the Year – <i>Crime Reads</i> / <i>Lit Hub</i><br /> From a prize-winning Turkish novelist, a heady, political tale of one man's search for identity and meaning in Istanbul after the loss of his memory.</b><br /> A blues singer, Boratin, attempts suicide by jumping off the Bosphorus Bridge, but opens his eyes in the hospital. He has lost his memory, and can't recall why he wished to end his life. He remembers only things that are unrelated to himself, but confuses their timing. He knows that the Ottoman Empire fell, and that the last sultan died, but has no idea when. His mind falters when remembering civilizations, while life, like a labyrinth, leads him down different paths.<br /> From the confusion of his social and individual memory, he is faced with two questions. Does physical recognition provide a sense of identity? Which is more liberating for a man, or a society: knowing the past, or forgetting it?<br /> Embroidered with Borgesian micro-stories, <i>Labyrinth</i> flows smoothly on the surface while traversing sharp bends beneath the current.
