Balm for our bruised times." -David Mitchell, author of Utopia AvenueA rich, magical new novel on belonging and identity, love and trauma, nature and renewal, from the Booker-shortlisted author of 10 Minutes 38 Seconds in This Strange World.Two teenagers, a Greek Cypriot and a Turkish Cypriot, meet at a taverna on the island they both call home. In the taverna, hidden beneath garlands of garlic, chili peppers and creeping honeysuckle, Kostas and Defne grow in their forbidden love for each other. A fig tree stretches through a cavity in the roof, and this tree bears witness to their hushed, happy meetings and eventually, to their silent, surreptitious departures. The tree is there when war breaks out, when the capital is reduced to ashes and rubble, and when the teenagers vanish. Decades later, Kostas returns. He is a botanist looking for native species, but really, he's searching for lost love.Years later a Ficus carica grows in the back garden of a house in London where Ada Kazantzakis lives. This tree is her only connection to an island she has never visited--- her only connection to her family's troubled history and her complex identity as she seeks to untangle years of secrets to find her place in the world.A moving, beautifully written, and delicately constructed story of love, division, transcendence, history, and eco-consciousness, The Island of Missing Trees is Elif Shafak's best work yet.Review"A beautiful contemplation of some of life's biggest questions about identity, history and meaning." - Time, "Most Anticipated Books of Fall""A brilliant novel - one that rings with her characteristic compassion for the overlooked and the under-loved, for those whom history has exiled, excluded or separated." - Robert McFarland, author of UNDERLAND"An excruciatingly tender love story that transcends cultures, generations and, most remarkably, species." - Naomi Klein, author of ON FIRE"Shafak's novel conveys how our ancestors' stories can reach us obliquely, unconsciously Shafak is cleareyed about how difficult it is to reach across the gulfs within our families." - The New York Times Book Review"A poignant novel of love, grief, and the generational trauma . a worthy read for our times, when so many conflicts have driven people to flee, carrying with them the horrors of war and the grief of leaving their homelands and loved ones behind." - Foreign Policy"A commentary on the bitter legacy of war . [and] also a commentary on the folly of our adversarial relationship with nature and our refusal to learn from the flora and fauna with which we share the planet . [Shafak] understands the interconnectedness". Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers BKZN9781635578591
