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

DeleteMa divnoooo! Toliko volim da vidim ovakve postove i da se podsetim svih tih divnih kombinacija, pogotovo kod tebe jer je svaka drugačija, neponovoljiva i beskrajno inspirativna. Vrtim slike već ne znam koliko puta i ne znam uopšte da ti kažem koja mi je najdraža jer mi je baš svaka pun pogodak :)

DeleteNema koja kombinacija nije posebna i baš u tvom stilu, i super mi je ovakva vrsta posta gdje je sve na jednom mjestu, ali da ti pravo kažem, veselim se onim laganijim, ljetnim, u njima ću s posebnim guštom uživati. :*
ReplyDeletehvala ti puno, a da i ja se veselim kombinacijama koje će biti više ljetne:)

DeleteE bome smo prošli sve vremenske uvjete u ovom postu, baš mi je drago ovako se malo vratiti natrag i sjetiti se nekih kombinacija koje su obilježile određene mjesece, uvijek uživam u tome! :)
ReplyDeletezapravo me iznenadilo koliko zimski izgledaju ove kombinacije, ali dosta ih nisam stigla objaviti jer mi nekako više odjevne kombinacije nisu glavna stavka...ali nema veze, objavit ću it kad tad...mogu ti reći da se veselim ovim toplijim danima.
DeleteA wonderful style recap! I love that you actually re-wear your outfits as well as style pieces you already own into different looks.
ReplyDeleteThank you for noticing, I always re-wear outfits and I enjoy doing that.
DeleteJa nekako tebe najviše volim vidjeti u haljinama i suknjama. Imaš mi krasne noge i ta damska elegancija mi baš nekako ide uz tebe. Imaš mi fino držanje i baš odaješ onaj damski štih... nije da išta fali hlačama, ali kad mi obučeš pencil suknju... ma za past u nesvjest... lijepi sažetak! :*
ReplyDeletehvala ti puno...ja se isto nekako osjećam najbolje u suknjama i haljinama, ali pošto dragi više voli kada nosim traperice i hlače, moram mu nekada ugoditi:)
DeleteI love this! Thanks for sharing xx
