“mrs. McGinty’s dead..how did she die?
down on one knee..just like I
mrs. McGinty’s dead..how did she die?

“When boredom loomed, I would cheer myself up with a game very similar to one I would later play in my novels. I would push the bottles and brushes toward the center of [his mother’s] dressing table and bringing my own head forward so that I could see it in the central panel of the mirror triptych, I would push the two wings of the mirror inward or outward until the two side mirrors were reflecting each other and I could see thousands of Orhans shimmering in the deep, cold, glass-colored infinity.”
― Pamuk; Orhan, Istanbul : Memories Of A City
