THE ISLAND OF THE MISSING TREES BY ELIF SHAFAK (BOOK REVIEW AND RECOMMENDATION)
Today I shall review The Island of Missing Trees by Elif Shafak. I was actually gifted this book. What a wonderful present it proved to be! Published in 2021, this postmodern novel follows two story lines and uses framed narration. The Island of Missing Trees tells the life story of a Greek Turkish couple and their adolescent daughter. This novel examines and explores a number of topics such as identity, migration, immigrant life, war trauma, memory, love and family. It's an ambitious novel that examines serious topics with due respect and sensitivity . I read it months ago, but I remember it vividly. Honestly, I cried a lot while reading this novel. It really moved me greatly. In fact, that is probably why it took me this long to finish this book review. I needed to emotionally process the story. The Island of Missing Trees is set in London and Cyprus. The narration isn't chronological . The story jumps back and forth, following two main timelines, one set in moder

Ne znam kako si ovo izvela, meni deluju kao neki kolacici :) Nadam se da nisu jer ja bih to pojela dok bi nosila :))

What a fab idea! When I saw the first photo I thought this was part of a bikini... not a bad, albeit frisky idea either. You're so creative! Can we see the necklace in action??

ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic idea and creativity as always :)
ReplyDeleteJako je dobra! Boje se na tako jedan čaroban način stapaju! A i oblici mi se svidjaju, baš prava Valentinovo ogrlica! Od čega si je napravila? :*
ReplyDeletebilo je tu dosta posla...podloga je od umjetne kože, a srca i zvijezde su zapravo osušeni Božični kolačići premazani lakom i akrilnim bojama. Prvobitno sam ih koristila kao dekoracije za stol, ali su mi već dosadili kao dekoracije pa sam ih iskoristila u ogrlici i zalijepila za umjetnu kožu. Šivanje je tu zapravo više kao ukras, malo rozog konca i tako to. Na kraju sam posprejala sve s onim svjetlucavim sprejem.
DeleteWow!! very beautiful and very artistic dearest!!! I love statement necklaces although I don't always wear them! you're very talented dear :))
