In the early modern era, the idea of rings, caps, or cloaks of invisibility found their way into European fairy tales. It hints at both sides of the issue: the possibility (invisibility could raise a shepherd to a king) and the horror (even a king has no defense against an invisible man), and can be read as both a tale of fantasy and horror. In this revealing story, a shepherd discovers a ring of invisibility that he uses to seduce the Queen of Lydia and murder the king. Some the earliest references come from Greek and Roman mythology – such as the “Ring of Gynges” spoken of by Plato. Invisibility in literature is as old as history itself. ![]() ![]() We find out that Shokko has suffered from a weak heart for much of her life, and in the present moment is finding it increasingly difficult to accomplish even the simplest daily tasks like cleaning and grocery shopping.

In this regard, the story has resonances with Taniguchi's The Ocean in the Closet.ĭilloway's novel centers on Shokko, the Japanese woman who marries an American soldier, and their daughter Suiko/Sue. More importantly, the novel traces the multi-generational legacy of such a Japanese woman and her mixed-race daughter and granddaughter.

Hence, depicted concepts and felt experiences stir up much controversy among critics who explore Pamuk's intention to understand the reasons why he might have thematised such problematic issues. The concepts of secularism, nationalism, and the Islamic Revival, including experiences of poverty that have been felt, unemployment, and suicide are all inscribed within the plot of this provocative novel. The novel depicts the city of Kars as a witness to deep-seated conflicting political views and social values. Snow represents modernist Turkey's political, cultural, and religious turmoil experienced in the late twentieth century. As a borderline city, it stands as the nexus of distinguished civilisations, such as that of Armenians, Russians, and Ottomans and bears the traces of several ethnic, cultural, and political characteristics of diverse identities. ![]() ![]() Nobel Prize laureate Orhan Pamuk's novel Snow (2002), which local scholars argue that it takes its name from 'karsu' (snow-water), takes place in Kars 3, a city located on the northeastern border of Turkey. ![]() |
