You can bring three books to a desert island. Which do you choose?
Encyclopaedia Britannica’s 1911 edition, the first edition of “Encyclopaedia of Islam” (1913-1936) and Resat Ekrem Kocu’s “Encyclopedia of Istanbul” (1958-1971), which I wrote about in my book “Istanbul,” will keep me busy for 10 years. My imagination works best with facts — especially if they are a bit dated. After 10 years they should pick me up from the desert island to publish the novels I wrote there.

o que me aborrece ainda mais por só ter podido ver o Dicionário de Eça de Queirós, quando havia mais cinco do mesmo tamanho na prateleira. do outro lado a enciclopédia luso-brasileira, provavelmente todos os quarenta volumes e as poucas actualizações.
