«An intelligent, fierce and beguiling read »
«A thoughtful, charming book that offers a connection to other worlds, perspectives and possibilities»
«An intense, discursive and absorbing novel»
«One of the most important writers at work today, Elif Shafak eloquently explores Turkey's tumultuous present and past. Her magnificent latest moves between Istanbul and Oxford in a fascinating exploration of faith and friendship, rich and poor, and the devastating clash of tradition and modernity»
«A brilliant and moving novel. Elif Shafak writes about religion without superficiality or special pleading, retaining a sense of its impossible possibility or its possible impossibility. Three Daughters of Eve is a remarkable accomplishment»
«Elif Shafak's writing leaps off the page. In Three Daughters of Eve she takes us spine-tinglingly right under the skin of three women, exposing the strains of friendship through love and loss. An utterly engrossing read.»
«Shafak's topical 10th novel is both an interrogation and a defence of Muslim identity»
«A terrific book. Poetic, poignant, trenchant.»
«Vivid storytelling... that explores the darkest aspects of faith and love»
«Exuberant, epic and comic, fantastical and realistic . . . like all good stories it conveys deeper meanings about human experience»
«A powerful book; thoughtful, provoking and compassionate»
«A brave and passionate novel»
«Moving, subtle and ultimately hopeful, Honour is further proof that Shafak is the most exciting Turkish novelist to reach western readers in years»
«Luscious, heartbreaking, completely absorbing. It is a full-blown saga of emotion and character, straddling countries, cultures and languages, exploring its women's ambitions and desires; and at the same time a steady-eyed examination of the nameless rules - of femininity, duty, belief and behaviour - that keep us in line and under control. This is an absolutely consuming novel about women who know what they want, and a warning about the price we pay, written with the fluency and depth of an author at the very top of her game.»
