This is a recent translation of an early work by Orhan Pamuk. It reminded me of My Name is Red, as each chapter is told from the point of view of different character. Silent House is the story of an extended family, who are all brought under one roof when they visit the graves of some relatives. Set in Turkey shortly before the coup of 1980, each of the characters has a different take on the new and old version of Turkey, their family and friends.
