Orhan Pamuk - The Museum of Innocence (Part One)

Actually I still read it but I can't wait to review it (I don't finish it yet). :) Been reading it since few months ago. It's not a boring book but I can't help but falling to sleep each time I read it. :( 

It's the story of Kemal, who had been in love (or so) to Sibel and about to get engaged to her.  Until he bumped into his childhood friend, to be exact, the daughter of his mother's seamstress, Fusun. Kemal and Sibel both come from an elite and well known family so when Kemal thought he had fallen into Fusun, he didn't know how to react, and most of all how to tell Sibel about his feeling towards Fusun. 

Later, after Kemal and Sibel got engaged, Fusun and her family were kind of shying away from the society.  To make matter worse, Sibel, upon knowing about Kemal's affair, refuse to break their engagement but instead she sticks to Kemal for quite a long time. While Kemal, when lost his love (Fusun), was close to lose his job and life. He was so lovestruck and practically did everything to find Fusun. 

However, when he had found Fusun (after a year and few months), he would have to live with a fact that his girl had married another man. At that time, Sibel had gone out of his life as well.

Basically this book was named the "Museum of Innocence" because along the story Kemal had described everything that remind him to Fusun and practically collecting them to be placed in that museum.  I guess it is so. Because I have just read first half of it! 

I don't know how it ends, but can't wait to finish it. :D

Till then, happy reading. :)
