El museo de la inocencia

The love story of Kemal, a young member of the Istanbul bourgeoisie, and his distant relative Füsun is an extraordinary novel about passion bordering on obsession. What begins as an innocent and uninhibited adventure, soon evolves towards limitless love, and later, when Füsun disappears, towards a deep melancholy. In the midst of the vertigo that her feelings produce, Kemal does not take long to discover the calming effect that objects that once passed through her hands have on him. Thus, as if it were a therapy for the illness that torments him, Kemal takes hold of all Füsun's personal belongings that are available to her.
