The following year Pamuk published his novel The Silent House, which in French translation won the 1991 Prix de la découverte européene. The novel was awarded both the Orhan Kemal and Milliyet literary prizes. The novel is the story of three generations of a wealthy Istanbul family living in Nisantasi, Pamuk's own home district. His first novel Cevdet Bey and His Sons was published seven years later in 1982. At the age of 23 Pamuk decided to become a novelist, and giving up everything else retreated into his flat and began to write. He went on to graduate in journalism from Istanbul University, but never worked as a journalist. After graduating from the secular American Robert College in Istanbul, he studied architecture at Istanbul Technical University for three years, but abandoned the course when he gave up his ambition to become an architect and artist. As he writes in his autobiographical book Istanbul, from his childhood until the age of 22 he devoted himself largely to painting and dreamed of becoming an artist. Orhan Pamuk was born in Istanbul in 1952 and grew up in a large family similar to those which he describes in his novels Cevdet Bey and His Sons and The Black Book, in the wealthy westernised district of Nisantasi. The Mitchell heirs, who instigated the sequel before their copyright on the 1936 book runs out in 2011, have been denounced as snake oil salesmen. And that's before learning that, for half of the book, Ripley shipped Scarlett from Georgia to Ireland. Some have called the book with the long-winded title a sacrilege to the sacred Southern Testament. Today, 900,000 copies of "Scarlett: The Sequel to Margaret Mitchell's 'Gone With the Wind' " will finally be available to the hundreds of thousands who signed up at bookstores across the country, requested it from two book clubs and ordered it in 18 languages in 40 countries. For this, she has been reviled, vilified and greatly enriched. For Ripley dared take up Margaret Mitchell's fallen pen, and write the sequel the Atlanta author never would. More than four decades later, the epic of gentle men, gracious ladies and feudal plantations has swept away Ripley's old life as surely as the Civil War did Scarlett's. What difference did it make to her life? "I wanted to be Melanie Wilkes because she was perfect." Alas, "at 13 I discovered I'd never be perfect." Alexandra Ripley, in a Southern rite of passage into womanhood, first read "Gone With the Wind" when she was 12 years old.

Later Shae sees "something ooze into the corridor-a pale grey shape, expanding and crinkling, which glistened and shook gelatinously as still-moving particles dropped free but it was only a glimpse". From the half-open shell rose several jointed cylinders, tipped with polypous appendages and in the darkness inside the shell I thought I saw a horrible bestial, mouthless face, with deep-sunk eyes and covered with glistening black hair."
