There Are Rivers in the Sky

by Elif Shafak

This is one of those unique books where the beauty of the language is all you need. Add epic storytelling that brings together disparate times and people, all shaped by water and rivers. No less than glorious, the book requires patience, but the reward is worth it! In her acknowledgments, Shafak said this novel is where her heart led her. The work of her heart is all a reader could want.
