We are thrilled and honored that Orhan Pamuk, winner of the 2006 Nobel Prize for Literature, will give the keynote presentation at the inaugural Boston Book Festival. Pamuk’s new book, The Museum of Innocence, is his first since winning the Nobel Prize and has been eagerly anticipated by his English-language readers. The book was published in Turkey in 2008 but the English edition will be released a mere four days before the Festival. For those who can’t wait, read an excerpt in the September 7 issue of The New Yorker.
