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.

DeleteSlatko. Treba raditi ono sto volis i sto te ispunjava i stalno uciti i usavrsavati se. Imas milion (a ti se pravi da to vec nisi cula) tutorijala na temu fashion illustrations. Cak sam i ja to radila kad sam isla na kurs modelovanja na jednom fakultetu i mogu ti reci da to uopste nije lako posebno kad imas dve leve ruke, kao ja.
ReplyDeletepa zapravo i nisam čula za tutoriale za tu temu, ja sam ih uvijek nekako šarala po bilježnicama bez nekog razmišljanja o tome. Ove godine planiram na tečaj slikanja, dobro si me podsjetila, moram upitati kad budem išla po materijale u galeriju.
