A mesmerizing tale of love-from the author of The Bastard of Istanbul Elif Shafak, the most widely read female writer in Turkey, has earned a growing fan base all over the world with her bestselling The Bastard of Istanbul. In The Forty Rules of Love, her lyrical, imaginative new novel about the famous Sufi mystic Rumi, Shafak effortlessly blends East and West, past and present, to create a dramatic, compelling, and exuberant tale about how love works in the world. Shafak unfolds two parallel narratives-one set in the thirteenth century, when Rumi encountered his spiritual mentor, the wandering dervish known as Shams of Tabriz, and one contemporary, as an unhappy American housewife, inspired by Rumi's message of love, finds the courage to transform her life.
"Ella Rubenstein is forty years old and unhappily married when she takes a job as a reader for a literary agent and suddenly her life is transformed. Her first assignment is to read a novel about the ancient Sufi mystic, Rumi, who was transformed by the whirling dervish into a passionate poet and advocate of love."
"Lahko stara zgodba o iskanju svojega poslanstva na svetu spremeni življenje sodobnega človeka? Štirideset pravil ljubezni je roman o ljubezni. O ljubezni, ki nas sili, da se iz območja udobja podamo v neznano. O ljubezni, ki medtem ko ustvarja, tudi ruši in za seboj pušča tiste, ki so nas ljubili. O ljubezni, zaradi katere počnemo stvari, ki nas plašijo, ker druge možnosti sploh nimamo. Štirideset pravil ljubezni je roman o tem, da mora sviloprejka umreti, da lahko dobimo svilo. In roman o pravilih, ki jih pozna vsak, ki je kdaj zares ljubil."@sl
