My Name is Red, Orhan Pamuk

Set in Istanbul in the 16th century, this detective novel is a wonderful (and instructive) description of the world of art and illuminated manuscript painters and connects beautifully with our Binney Collection. The author won the Nobel Prize for literature.

My Name is Red will be the fourth book to be discussed for the Art of Reading Book Club. Join in on Saturday, May 18, 2013 at 10:00 AM in the museum's library to discuss this book! Please RSVP by dialing 619-696-1941.
