Istanbul is a city caught between two worlds: one rooted in history and tradition, the other constantly evolving and modernizing. As skyscrapers replace old neighborhoods and green spaces make way for malls, the city's transformation raises questions about what's being lost. In Dear Istanbul, Remzi Gokdag interviews twenty individuals whose lives are intertwined with the city's rich past, from artists to shopkeepers. Their stories reflect a deep connection to a city that's changing, yet remains unforgettable.
Through their memories of childhood and daily life in old Istanbul, Remzi Gokdag captures the nostalgia and resilience that define the city's soul. Though the skyline shifts and familiar landmarks fade, the spirit of Istanbul persists. This book is a tribute to that enduring spirit-an exploration of the joy, sadness, and love for a city that continues to evolve but will never be forgotten.
