Staying Plural

"I think it's perfectly OK to be multi-lingual, multi-cultural, even multi-faith. In a world that's always asking us to make a choice once and for all, we should say, 'No: I'm not going to make that choice. I'm going to stay plural'."

- From an interview with Elif Shafak, the Turkish novelist who shares the distinction, along with Pamuk, of being accused of "insulting Turkishness".
