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.

ReplyDeleteJako lijepa ogrlica divnih boja i vrhunske izrade! Ne znam kako si je uspijela izraditi, izgleda baš teško. Sama baš nisam ljubiteljica tih ogrlica uz vrat jer dobijem neki osjećaj klaustrofobije i davljenja :)

DeleteI hope the crystals bring you lots of positive energy, xoxo.
ReplyDeleteI think that they're just ordinary stones but thanks:)
