Snow by Orhan Pamuk
This is the story of Ka, a Turkish Poet and the three days he spent in a city cut off from the outside world by continuously falling snow. Turkey is depicted as a scary place, not because of bird flu, but because of its politics and the power of the military. It's all so different to our western culture but this deep and complex book leaves you with an understanding of the Turkish modus operandi.
