An Urban Love Memoir

An urban love memoir by Ahmet Sabancı; Concept & Cover Design by Orhan Gonen

Some stories are never told; yet never meant to be shared with the One. But you can share it with the world. "Nothing, as you don't know" is an urban love memoir, a kind of reflection of what has actually happened while you are apart from your so-called soul mate. 

The book contains 6 sections, stories traveling back and forth in time, while the main character struggles to overcome the feeling of being abandoned by the One, he loves. In his first memoir, Ahmet Sabanci opens up the doors of his secret garden with an intimate; yet touching genre. When I first read the initial draft, I was so moved with the story and how well it reflected a part in each and every one of us. When Ahmet offered me to work on the concept design of the book, I was so honored. I read each section over and over again, in order to find the right visual tonality and express his emotions with a distinctive sensual touch.

"Nothing, as you don't know" will be available in stores in June, while the launch party will be at GaleriBu, Galata on June 7th.
