Elif Shafak
Revisiting The Forty Rules of Love




Transcending fiction and non-fiction, Elif Shafak is an author who helps us to make sense of the world around us. Her writing succeeds at enchanting the spirit and the senses, stirring the heart, and encourages us to think deeply about the great themes of human life.
Talking about her recently reissued modern classic, The Forty Rules of Love, Elif will revisit her mesmerising tale of discovery, language, truth and, of course, love itself. Infused with Sufi mysticism and verse, this book was chosen as one of the BBC’s ‘100 Novels that Shaped the World’. Elif will be talking to Chris Power, broadcaster, author and judge for the Booker Prize 2025.
‘The past and present fit together beautifully in a passionate defence of passion itself.’
