AMY MILLS is an assistant professor in the department of geography at the University of South Carolina.
Streets of Memory is a powerful ethnography of spatial relations
and social memory in contemporary Istanbul. Beautifully written and
original, this book is a most welcome contribution to social
geography in Turkey and the Middle East.

Everyday Politics in Turkey*
Amy Mills deeply and carefully explicates the place of landscape
and the importance of place in mediating multiple identities,
ranging from the personal to the national. She is particularly good
at using ethnographic fieldwork to demonstrate the on-the-ground
manner in which landscape works.
