Bibliothekia: Ohh those Turks (and Greeks)

"Ohh those Turks (and Greeks)
If the last week on Bibliothekia has been about Google, the last month's bedside reading has been about Turkey. Hence the change of pace with this post. But back to Turkey, and in particular Brendan Shanahan's very funny, sometimes sad, often poignant, and always insightful rollicking ride through Istanbul and Turkey titled In Turkey I am beautiful. If you have not already heard it, track down Eartha Kitt singing 'Uska Dara – a Turkish Tale' it fits alongside Brendan's book perfectly."
