Erkan’s novel reading spree

I am about to finish reading Murat Menteş’ last novel. This is the last of a series of quality novels I have been reading. He has earned quite a fame in Turkey and he deserves it. Good geeky appropriation of popular culture images. All other novels are award winning novels and I would recommend all to read..

Murat Menteş: Dublörün Dilemması

Neil Gaiman: The Graveyard Book

Has the taste of The Little Prince🙂

Neil Gaiman in the New Yorker

Nice profile of Neil Gaiman in this week’s New Yorker, written by Dana Goodyear, who really followed Neil around to get the story — caught their duo act at the WorldCon in Montreal last year, where Ms Goodyear was being introduced to everyone who had a good Neil story to tell.

Michael Chabon: The Yiddish Policemen’s Union.

Definitely a challenging read. Not for easy reading. But you won’t regret when you read…

Aravid Adiga: The White Tiger.

Reminds you the movie Slumdog Millionaire.

Elizabeth Strout: Olive Kitteridge

Challenging in the sense that you will be thrown into melancholy and nostalgia. If you survive, there will be that literary taste in your mouth:)
