It doesn’t sound like I would enjoy it very much either.

Thanks for that, now I know what I don’t like. =) What did I learn in my 4 year English degree??

My knowledge doesn’t extend past the crusades (when it was Constantinople!), so I knew very little about the culture at this point.

You’re right that the story sounds intriguing, but if you can’t connect, then what good is it? I “might” give it a try, as I LOVE Istanbul, but we’ll see! Thanks for the information here.
