Product Description
Italo Calvino's Invisible Cities, a book by the modern world's storyteller that has long been out of print in Turkish, is now available again... Marco Polo, traveling through Kublai Khan's atlas... On one side are the dreams created by the Western eye looking at the East, and on the other, the insolubility and future of the modern city.
"A book is a space; the reader should enter it, wander, perhaps lose themselves, but at some point find an exit, or even many exits. A book is an opportunity to embark on a journey to get out."
When the reader picks up the book, they should be sure that they will wander among the author's cities, devour the possibilities presented to them in golden letters, and finally add what they have read to their own ideal cities in their mind. The reader should, if possible, read the book while sitting at one of the coffee tables lined up along a large avenue, in order to better see the reality before their eyes and the fiction before their eyes...
"Perhaps we are approaching the crisis point of urban life, and Invisible Cities is a dream born from the heart of cities that have become unlivable."
