Explanation In Favor Of Books Serenad

In this heartbreaking Turkish novel based on the real-life sinking of a refugee ship during World War II, an elderly professor leaves America to revisit the city where he last glimpsed his beloved wife.

Istanbul, 2001. Maya Duran is a single mother struggling to balance a demanding job at Istanbul University with the challenges of raising a teenage son. Her worries increase when she is tasked with looking after the enigmatic Maximilian Wagner, an elderly German-born Harvard professor visiting the city at the university's invitation. Although he is distant at first, Maya gradually learns of the tragic circumstances that brought him to Istanbul sixty years before, and the dark realities that continue to haunt him.

Inspired by the 1942 Struma disaster, in which nearly 800 Jewish refugees perished after the ship carrying them to Palestine was torpedoed off the coast of Turkey, Serenade for Nadia is both a poignant love story and a gripping testament to the power of human connection in crisis.

I have been working, which means less time to read. I read this book very slow. But I think it was for the better, cuz I felt it more. I was living in Turkey for a year, and people there love Livaneli. Thats how I learned about the book. I bought it when i came back home.

Reading this book was a great journey through history, culture, psychology and beautiful philosophy that links East and West. Simply loved the way how the author plays with words and emotions while exposing in a very sofisticated way such harmful historical scars.

The most impresive book in my life.Love,Law, Government...The world is different than before!

Nice

I couldnt take away this book until I finish it. Amazing!

From one of Turkeys bestselling authors, Zulfu Livaneli (dont feel bad, I had never heard of him before either), comes a novel of an extraordinary love story mingled with a forgotten real-life tragedy intermingled with a spy-like thriller that is hard to put down. Its a story-within a story-within a story that is virtually seamless for the reader. If you enjoyed the complexity of Margaret Atwoods The Blind Assassin, I think you will geek-out with this novel.Story One takes place on a plane in

Easy to read, full of pictures of modern Istanbul and Turkey together with a very touching story involving the dreadful events of WW2 which will captivate..
