My name is red

Hi everyone, i was wondering if you guys have read this novel (My name is red) l by Nobel prize winning Orhan Pamuk, i just think its great (lol, and not cause its turkish )

i was thinking this book is perfect for a scandalous hbo mini series, along the lines of rome or john adams


anyway if u havent read it, its about this murder in 17th century istanbul, and there is a lot of scandal, and the characters range from the murderer, to the murdered, to the color red, and even dogs and other things, each character provides an original view towards the events, and there is a back story about this guy who came back from war in persia and he is trying to marry his love but she is making him work for it , lol, anyway, here are some reviews if ur interested
