A review by shoddy23
Snow by Orhan Pamuk

3.0

Ka seems, depending on whose perspective you take, to be either an infidel from Istanbul, corrupted by Western ideology, or a free-thinking poet looking for someone or something to love. Being a natural hedonist, his loyalties seem to waver according to whoever he is with at the time.

Spoiler

One minute he loves Ipek, the next it's her sister. He can't even seem to make up his mind whether or not to believe in God. He knows, by the end of the novel, he can never be happy because what he wants will never be his, so he finally does make up his mind and makes the decision that seals his fate.
