I remembering playing " Cut The Pie" (a game of tag) at night in our back yard, the only light we had was the glow of the kitchen window. When we were too tired, we would fall on our backs in the snow, which felt like a huge bed, I would look up at the stars and tried to count them all. Brings a smile to my face right now just writing about it.

Wonderful! This is so full of gems, I'll come back to it. Pamuk's 'Snow' is a superb novel, one of my favourites of his. I remember epic snowfalls in Turkey. And weird but great to see Pamuk in the same essay as Henry James. Thank you so much for putting all this together. It feels like a public service!
