  • ""Effendi, an artist hired to illustrate a book illuminating the Sultan's triumphant life, has been killed. The man who hired him, Enishte, has also been murdered. While on a recent trip to Italy, Enishte was entranced by painting that used perspective and figurative art abundantly. He encouraged his artists to use the same methods in their construction of the Sultan's book. However, this sort of art serves as an affront to Islam and may have led to the deaths of Effendi and Enishte"--English edition."
  • "In Istanbul, in the 1590s, the Sultan secretly commissions a great book, but any work of art--an affront to Islam--is dangerous."
  • "In 16th-century Istanbul, Enishte Effendi is commissioned to create a book celebrating the life of a sultan. He commissions the best miniaturists and illuminators, but soon Enishte and one of the illustrators is dead. How did this happen, and is it related to Enishte's fascination with the new Italian figurative painting he discovered on a trip to Venice? Art, philosophy, religion and history mingle in this intriguing tale."
  • "In Turkije in de zestiende eeuw wil de sultan een boek laten illustreren door zijn beste tekenaars; wanneer echter blijkt dat de controversiële illustraties een westerse inslag moeten hebben, valt er een dode."

  • "At once a fiendishly devious mystery, a beguiling love story, and a brilliant symposium on the power of art, My Name Is Red is a transporting tale set amid the splendor and religious intrigue of sixteenth-century Istanbul, from one of the most prominent contemporary Turkish writers. The Sultan has commissioned a cadre of the most acclaimed artists in the land to create a great book celebrating the glories of his realm. Their task: to illuminate the work in the European style. But because figurative art can be deemed an affront to Islam, this commission is a dangerous proposition indeed. The ruling elite therefore mustn't know the full scope or nature of the project, and panic erupts when one of the chosen miniaturists disappears. The only clue to the mystery'or crime' 'lies in the half-finished illuminations themselves. Part fantasy and part philosophical puzzle, My Name is Red is a kaleidoscopic journey to the intersection of art, religion, love, sex and power. Translated from the Turkish by Erda M GOknar."

  • ""Ein Toter kehrt zurück: aus der Tiefe eines Brunnens spricht der erschlagene Vergolder Fein Effendi -- er kennt seinen Mörder und auch das Motiv für die Tat. Es ist das Jahr 1591: Es gibt einen Komplott gegen das gesamte Osmanische Reich, seine Religion, seine Kultur und seine Traditionen. Und darin verwickelt sind die Buchmaler, die Kollegen des Ermordeten, die für den Sultan zehn Buchblätter bemalen sollen, die zum islamischen Jahr eintausend dem venezianischen Dogen zu überbringen sind ..."--Opposite title page."
  • ""When the Sultan commissions a great book to celebrate his royal self and his extensive dominion, he directs Enişte Efendi to assemble a cadre of the most acclaimed artists in the land. Their task: to illuminate the work in the European style. But because figurative art can be deemed an affront to Islam, this commission is a dangerous proposition indeed, and no one in the elite circle can know the full scope or nature of the project." "Panic erupts when one of the chosen miniaturists disappears, and the Sultan demands answers within three days. The only clue to the mystery - or crime? - lies in the half-finished illuminations themselves. Has an avenging angel discovered the blasphemous work? Or is a jealous contender for the hand of Enişte's ravishing daughter, the incomparable Şekure, somehow to blame?"."
