Katıp, Belma Burning Windows

The year is 1968. Susan Kimball, an unworldly American on her first visit to Istanbul, meets an older Turkish woman who invites her to stay in her familys villa on the Princes Islands. Looking forward to a quiet holiday in this exotic and romantic setting, Susan soon finds herself lost in a maze of family plots, hatreds and rivalries. Plump and self-deprecating, she is an unlikely heroine, but Susan plunges in with humor and enthusiasm to unravel and deal with the complex, baffling drama unfolding around her.
