Armenians in Modern Turkish Literature: The Ghost Stories of Orhan Pamuk.
The relative paucity of Armenians in the novels of the Turkish Nobel laureate Orhan Pamuk is ironic, given Pamuk's own political and very public stance on the Turkish government's silence concerning the twentieth century history of violence towards its Armenian minorities.
