Join The Booksmith as they host the free reading of “Not Constantinople”by Nicholas Bredie on Tuesday, July 11th at 7:30 pm in San Francisco, California.

About “Not Constantinople:” The story centers around Fred and Virginia, two American expats living in Istanbul and working at the university who come home one night to find their apartment occupied by a family of Greeks. Barred by a quirk of Turkish law from evicting them, Fred comes to a strange kind of understanding with their new squatters; he’s in Istanbul because the pay is good, and with the property in limbo he can ignore the rent, not to mention the paper-writing racket he starts with the Greek patriarch, selling term papers to his own university students.
