«Tengo que escribir sobre el placer que siento al escribir por encima de un dibujo. Esto es lo que hay que decir: entre los 7 y los 22 años pensé que iba a ser pintor. A los 22, murió el pintor que habÃa en mà y empecé a escribir novelas. En 2008, entré en una tienda y salà con dos enormes bolsas llenas de lápices y pinceles; luego, entre el placer y el temor, empecé a dibujar en pequeños cuadernos. No, el pintor que habÃa en mà no estaba muerto . Desde hace quince años, Orhan Pamuk escribe y dibuja a diario en sus cuadernos. Anota sus pensamientos sobre la actualidad, dialoga con los personajes de sus novelas, confiesa sus miedos y preocupaciones, narra sus encuentros y viajes y reflexiona sobre el amor y la felicidad. Por primera vez, el escritor que soñaba con ser pintor nos muestra una cuidada selección personal de sus dibujos, una bellÃsima aproximación a la Ãntima y prolÃfica lectura que hace Pamuk del mundo y de la vida a través de un conmovedor mosaico de paisajes y reflexiones. Recuerdos de montañas lejanas se convierte asà en un verdadero espacio artÃstico alejado del diario o las memorias tradicionales, dando lugar a un libro singular e inimitable. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Noble Prize-winning novelist Orhan Pamuk shares his memories and impressions through a life's worth of drawings and reflections. I must write about the pleasure I feel when writing alongside a drawing. This is what I have to say: Between the ages of 7 and 22, I thought I was going to be a painter. At 22, the painter in me died and I started to write novels. In 2008, I went into a store and came out with two huge bags full of pencils and brushes and, with a mix of fear and pleasure, I started making drawings in small notebooks. The painter in me wasn't dead after all. For the last fifteen years, Orhan Pamuk has filled his diaries with text and drawings. He jots down his thoughts on current events, engages in a dialogue with the characters in his novels, confesses his fears and concerns, chronicles his travels, and ruminates on love and happiness. For the first time, the writer who dreamed of being a painter shares a curated selection of his personal drawings, a gorgeous glimpse of his intimate and prolific reading of the world and life through an evocative mosaic of landscapes and reflections. Rather than a diary or traditional memoir, Memories of Distant Mountains is more of an artistic space captured in a unique and inimitable volume.
