Orhan Pamuk is a Nobel Prize-winning Turkish novelist. He is somehow affiliated with the university's Committee on Global Thought, but will have a more formal presence on campus next year, when he co-teaches a couse with his friend Andreas Huyssen. Pamuk was spending some time at Columbia in Fall 2006 due to the attempt to prosecute him for "insulting Turkishness" in his native country, when he was awarded the Nobel. During this period, he spent time composing his newest novel in Deutsches Haus.
Pamuk had been a presence on campus before, authoring a previous novel in Butler Library while his wife was a grad student.
