A unique style of writing. This is my first book by the author Elif Shafak and I loved it. The storytelling is poetic and stimulates all the senses. The smells, sounds, and touches remain with you even after reading. The fragrance of cardamom coffee, the smell of sugar-and-lemon, the aromatic lamb stew, the taste of watermelon, and the soil in her mouth are described in a way that you feel them.
This book is full of quotes and highlights for me. One I particularly liked
