A novel idea: author Orhan Pamuk's Museum of Innocence comes to London

Peer into 13 beautifully arranged cabinets of curios at this engrossing little exhibition from Nobel Prize-winning Turkish author Orhan Pamuk. The objects were collected, bought and commissioned by Pamuk himself and all play a part in his novel 'The Museum of Innocence'. Each window represents a part of the characters' story, and the collection is a fond snapshot of everyday life in late twentieth-century Istanbul.

Somerset House, Strand, WC2R 1LA. Until April 3. Daily 10am-6pm
