Review: Lovely addition to my coffee table book collection - I love this book. The pictures alone transport me back to Istanbul. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.
Review: A beautiful book - An absolutely beautiful book, LIVING IN ISTANBUL is a feast for the eyes, that’s for sure. Photographer Jérôme Darblay presents us with captivating shots throughout this old and mysterious city, if not instantly transporting us there, certainly making us want to go. Broken down into sections on Impressions of the Bosporus, A Day in Istanbul, Interiors, Palaces of the Bosporus, Traditions, and Rendezvous, each contains photos and texts introducing us to and giving us a deeper appreciation of the city and some of its lesser-known corners. Accompanied by a text that (usually) provides a good description and context, the book is (usually) likewise a pleasure to read. That text, however, does not always live up to the photography. Often exceptionally obscure, sometimes a bit too flowery in its descriptions, certain sections lower the overall flavor and impact of this tome. Still, it is the photos that most will come for (after all, there are many travel books and travelogues for simply the written word) and they are worth your time. Although this cannot replace one of those travel books, it references many places, and provides captivating photos of them, that I took notes along the way and will use it as a springboard for ideas if I am ever lucky enough to get myself there. In all, LIVING IN ISTANBUL is well worth it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Elegant Istanbul!
*by A***Y on October 9, 2013*

the ornate elegance of istanbul...the history...it's amazing. i visited the city some years ago and was completely enchanted by the setting, with its palaces, mosques, museums, restaurants, grand markets. there's so much to see, and the people are welcoming. this books offers looks at its sumptuous qualities, with interesting information about furnishings and dwellings.
