About this listen
Peri, a wealthy Turkish housewife, is on her way to a dinner party at a seaside mansion in Istanbul when a beggar snatches her handbag. As she wrestles to get it back, a photograph falls to the ground - an old Polaroid of three young women and their university professor. A relic from a past - and a love - Peri had tried desperately to forget. The photograph takes Peri back to Oxford University, as an 18-year-old sent abroad for the first time and to her dazzling, rebellious professor and his life-changing course on God. It also takes her to her home with her two best friends, Shirin and Mona, and their arguments about Islam and femininity and, finally, to the scandal that tore them all apart.

The Spaces In Between
Elif’s spirit flies through her pen as do the universal truths illuminated by sages from the past. A modern story that explores East/West, men and women and the dichotomies of issues facing people on their personal quest of ‘Knowing Thy Self’ The love of learning and her beloved home of Turkey radiates through the storyline of this important book.

Elif Shafak
I am gradually working my way through all of this author’s books. This was the sixth, and all gave been wonderful. The characters, the stories and the writing. They have all been emotionally fulfilling and informative. I can’t wait to start my next one.

Awful fake ethnic accent ruined a good story.
Would you try another book written by Elif Shafak or narrated by Alix Dunmore?
Elif Shafak writes with such insight of Istanbul and the Turkish culture, but the story is tragically ruined by the infuriatingly distracting fake ethnic accent attempted by this narrator.
