This book examines representations of Istanbul in the text of contemporary Turkish and non-Turkish writers, highlighting how multiple and even contradictory depictions in the texts engage in cross-genre mergings that narrate plural accounts of Istanbul’s imperial past and its present role as Turkey’s largest industrial city.
