Orhan Pamuk competition: win tickets for this special evening at the Royal Festival Hall

 

It’s competition time! T-VINE has 10 pairs of tickets up for grabs for Orhan Pamuk In Conversation, an evening with the Nobel prize-winning author at the Royal Festival Hall in London on Friday 15 September.

Turkey’s most famous writer will be talking about his latest book The Red-Haired Woman and the philosophical issues it raises. Set in Istanbul, Pamuk not only tells a great fictional yarn about a murder case, but he also uses his novel to critique society on its morals, politics, individual freedoms, and religion.

Pamuk will also take the audience on an audio-visual journey of his beloved city, as he chronicles the civilisations that have flowed into Istanbul and their legacy on this incredible metropolis. Hosted by the Independent’s Literary Editor Boyd Tonkin, it promises to be a very special and unique evening.

Tickets are on sale from the venue priced £15 to £20. But if you’d like to win yourselves a pair for free, here’s how:
