Orhan Pamuk, the acclaimed Turkish novelist acquitted of criminal
charges of denigrating his country, won the Nobel prize for literature
yesterday.
The decision to award the prize to a writer and campaigner who
advocates Turkey's European ambitions, and is a searing critic of
authoritarian trends in his country, came as a boon to freedom of
expression. But Pamuk, a hero to Istanbul liberals, is reviled by his
country's nationalists who see him as a traitor.
