Orhan Pamuk:
Our love for our fathers and our fear of their authority is inevitably reflected in how we perceive their belongings. My father, just like Kemal’s, had a cabinet with all sorts of objects in it.
The Museum of Innocence is based on the assumption that objects used for different purposes and that evoke disparate memories can, when placed side by side, bring forth unusual emotions and thoughts.
Kemal’s father, just like mine, spent most of his time at home, lying on the sofa in the living room reading the entire newspaper. Whenever he came across a piece of news he didn’t like, he ripped out the page he was reading and threw it on the floor; someone would then pick up the discarded sheets and put them back in order.
