Here are two nice pieces about Istanbul that appeared in the British media recently.
The first is an article from The Guardian which first appeared in Le Monde - Istanbul Trembles at Pace of Change. It discusses how Istanbul has been transformed by development projects and internal immigration, displacing old communities.
The second is a piece on BBC Radio about the history of the Bosphorus. It also discusses the new verb, "to Bosphorise" - can any of you help improve my Turkish by telling me what this verb is, in Turkish?
More generally, I'd be very interested in your responses to either piece.
