I doubt My Name is Red needs another recommendation but potential readers might need some guidance in understanding why critics consider the book a contemporary classic.Though the story is ostensibly a mystery, the real subject of the book is early modern Istanbul-its government, culture and people. These are so ingeniously depicted that I'm surprised the book hasn't become celebrated as a work which lets a reader glimpse into a culture foreign to most contemporary Westerners.The theme of Turkey's divide between East and West, as exemplified in the work of figurative manuscripts, is best read for oneself rather than summarized. Other themes such as the nature of art itself, the relationship between art and Islam and the relationships between master and pupil are strewn throughout the work. All the while Pamuk tells such a compelling story that the narrative could have been published without this philosophical depth.There is a lot more that could be said about this novel: its serious themes right along playful asides that keep the novel from being too ponderous, the surprisingly realistic characters in a work of historical fiction (although the artists sometimes seem superhuman-Pamuk is an artist himself after all), the honest depiction of both the glories and depravities of Ottoman culture but, again, its best to discover these on your own than have someone provide spoilers of Pamuk's masterpiece.In brief, if you are looking for literary fiction which also depicts a largely unknown culture (except to Turks) you could hardly find a better choice. If you are looking for an interesting mystery, you will find it but hopefully you will also take in this fascinating depiction of Ottoman culture.
A fascinating look at the relationship between art and life in the Ottoman empire. There is a murder mystery here, and a decidedly unromantic love story, but those simply serve as a framework for rumination on the purpose art should serve in society, particularly in the Ottoman empire of the 1500's. Art is a form of creation and the act of creation can be seen to infringe uncomfortably on the area of expertise that is the the domain of God. However, these creations serve to exalt God, inspire beholders, and establish legacies. Where do these worthwhile purposes intersect with the heresy of stepping on God's toes?"Yes, these are our hidden traces, not those identical horses all in a row. When a painter renders the fury and speed of a horse, he doesn't paint his own fury and speed; by trying to make the perfect horse, he reveals his love for the richness of this world and its creator, displaying the colors of a passion for life -- only that and nothing more."The Ottoman artists in this novel are miniaturists who decorate books to exalt the glory of the sultan. They are working in a style that is devoid of perspective and this puts their work at a comfortable distance from realism and the murky gray area between art and blasphemy. Their world is turned upside down by the radical trend towards realism in art that comes by way of Venice. At what point do these ideas cross from being aesthetically pleasing to being downright dangerous?
I chose the title only because of a couple of scenes....read the book and you find out whyThis book is about 14th century art in Istanbul. It is a murder mystery that blends the life stories of miniaturist … artist that created the beautiful artwork and gold leaf edging in books of that era. Today’s miniaturist is better known as an illustrator of books. The author takes a unique approach in beginning a chapter with a title “I amâ€. Then each chapter is told in the voice of the name of what would follow “I amâ€; a first person story told by many different first persons. The name is not necessarily a person. It could be an object like a coin that would then set the setting for the commerce that crosses both Venetian or Ottoman, Christian or Muslim, of that era. There are love dramas, conspiracies, Greek tragedies, (so apropos a term for a setting in Istanbul), and a lot of art history in novel form. Any reader would be intrigued enough to start fact checking and eventually planning a trip to Istanbul to discover firsthand the art of an era so over looked by us Westerners.Bikaner Miniature Painting You'll have to go to my blog cigarroomofbooks to see the picture. Apparently it would post here.The murder and conspiracy spins around a real plot on a person’s conceit. Imagine a person of wealth having his portrait painted and hung on the walls of his palazzo. Take it a step further and imagine a famous scene, say a battle, and that a Doge would have himself painted in to the scene, though having not been there. It would be a false rendering of the story. And then imagine the concern of the miniaturists who see the betrayal of truth and Allah himself. Remember in the 1500’s there were no other material media for stories to get told in color. You then begin to appreciate how grave the crime might be. Of course Hollywood does this all the time, so one must question the sliding scale of the virtue of man. And then weigh in on the moral consequences in what may be a justified murder. Or was it just for the money after all?As the murder plot thickens, the reader is rendered as the sleuth to figure out who the murderer is. The information is presented in first person of the prime character of any chapter. And the detectives are describing drawing styles of art that could be linked to one miniaturist or another. The reader cannot help but learn to become an art critic. The author, like in the book, sneaks up on you with art education while distracting you with a multi faced plot.The 14th century Muslim art critic’s primary objection was in defense of Allah. It was not the goal to paint a scene objectively, but rather the painting should be rendered as though seen through the eyes of Allah. As the plot unfolds the objection unravels. To determine the author you had to examine all the artists for style. Style was at that time in the Ottoman Empire dictated by the masters of any given schools. Somehow a master artist would at the end of his career go blind from so much dedication to Allah’s work and he could still somehow be able to instruct his students. It was an achievement to go blind. Somehow the actors in the drama fail to see that Allah is really the master artist forcing his style on his students.The real tragedy is the suspect artists feud with each other as they witness art from the Venetians who capture scenes objectively. Their feud is fueled with the competition of who would succeed their murdered master. Poor Black who is strapped with the job to figure out who done it so that he may earn the love and hand of the dead master’s daughter, finds himself being convinced, one by one by the arguments of each suspect. Every argument brings two themes. Fist is the sacrilege of their brethren actually painting with their own style. And second is that unique style is exactly evidence found in the murder scene painting.The book is clearly poetry in prose. It is word art. It is a Walt Whitman rant style of poetry. The only thing missing is the artwork.
This novel is a masterwork murder mystery - it shouldn't be limited by inclusion in that genre, but a murder is the prime motivational factor. It's easy to see why Pamuk won the Nobel Prize - his skill is great. This novel is all about characters; each chapter is narrated by a different character, not all even human, nor sentient. Pure genius. It's also a very rich description of Ottoman Turkey - or one segment of it - and that causes the action to move slowly, purposefully slowly. So, it's not for quick beach read. Notably, the translation is excellent, happily because I don't read Turkish. Wish I could give 4.5 stars - it's better than 4, but translation and editing errors, and some slight heavy slowness, keep it from 5 in my opinion.
