"How are you doing?"
"I could be better...."
"What is wrong then?"
"I miss them..."
"Miss who, my dear?"
"Them... they were both the light of my life... They held me and cared and truly loved me."
"Does no one else care?"
"I doubt anyone would... No one knows me like they did."
"And... who were they?"
The boy thought a minute at the question just asked of him. Then he looked up at the tall person who stood in front of him, and spoke.
"They were my everything."
"And why did they leave?"
"It was only an accident, I know that they loved me and never would do it..."
"But what happened, dear?"

Istanbul is a city bristling with life, a place where past and present, sacred and profane, intertwine under the watchful gaze of the Sultan Ahmet Mosque. As I explore this crossroads of cultures with Maya, my nine-year-old niece and the daughter of my late brother-in-law Frank, and my wife Nadia, Frank's sister, I find myself on a journey not just through Istanbul's history, but also into the depths of my own beliefs. Staying with Maya and her mother Elvan, my sister-in-law, I begin to see the city anew through their eyes, and to understand why James Baldwin said it "revived" him.
