Halfway through Somewhere in the Balkans, the 1st tome of a family saga trilogy about an Armenian family from Rodosto (now Tekirdağ in #Turkey) at the turn of the 20th century. Written in Bulgarian by an Armenian Bulgarian author. I am reading the French translation. Loving it so far, but I know the 2nd tome will be difficult to find, and it looks like the 3rd never was translated (unless it's included in the 2nd - informations are unclear).
Dilara Pic of the memorial house of Francis II Rákóczi in Tekirdağ, Turkey by Ollios, CC BY-SA 3.0, via Wikimedia Commons. He has nothing to do with the story, but this picture of his traditional house in Rodosto/Tekirdağ gave me a much better understanding of the lay of the house described in the book, especially the monumental gate. 2mo
