Waterstone’s says: "...some of the most beautifully crafted and engrossing stories that one can read..." The Asham Award website says: "This stunning range of work is not afraid to explore the darker side of human emotion, yet allows us to see the light which often wavers at the end of the bleakest and longest tunnel. These beautifully written stories are in the best literary tradition, lyrical yet understated. "

Beautiful!! I just love all the colour.
Colour, noise, scents, crowds, sweet tea in glasses, the muezzin wailing from 100 minarets heard from Topkapi hill, buying saffron from Iran, Turkish delight made with honey and pistachios, green tea with roses, black tea with cardamom, a bubble pipe for number two son, ... and very sore feet!
Gorgeous pictures! You have a great eye. Wot no carpet-buying??
Ha!
no carpets... no thanks to the efforts of the bazzaar carpet men. Thanks, T!
How do they keep the spices in such neat pyramids?!
Kids are kids the world over though, chasing the pigeons.
Really good photos.
And Turkish delight, mmm!
Fabulous - I want to go there.
Thanks Rachel... I love taking photos. if I wasnt a writer Id be a photographer... but I haven't got time to learn how to do it properly!
Jo - lovely to see you! have dropped a message on your blog.
Beautiful pix, Vanessa - you've summed up a city. Clearly you've got a good eye, & this translates into your use of words also. Minnie xx
