A poetically written book about grief, friendship, sex workers and Istanbul. I was expecting something like a murder mystery meets travel guide, but I got so much more.

Halber Stern Abzug für das Abwechseln von Transsexualität und Travestie - zwei sehr unterschiedliche Dinge - aber abgesehen von diesem sprachlichen Stolperstein absolut 5 Sterne. Tolles Buch!
