Resumen
During Istanbuls tumultuous 1970s, Kemal Bey, 30-year-old son of an upper-class family, walks readers through a lengthy catalogue of trivial objects, which, though seeming mundane, hold memories of his lifes most intimate, irretrievable moments. The main focus of Kemals peculiar collection of earrings, ticket stubs and drinking glasses is beloved Füsun, his onetime paramour and longtime unrequited love. An 18-year-old virginal beauty, modest shopgirl and poor distant relation, Füsun enters Kemals successful life just as he is engaged to Sibel, a very special, very charming, very lovely girl.
