Istanbul était un conte

Résumé

In his unique and lyrical style, Mario Levi captures the city of Istanbul and its storied past with a rare intimacy and humor. A major work of contemporary Turkish literature, Istanbul Was a Fairy Tale tells the stories of three generations of a Jewish family from the 1920s to the 1980s. Istanbul is their only home, and yet they live in a state of alienation, isolating themselves from the world around them.
