From Booker-shortlisted author Elif Shafak, Honour is a gripping
tale of love, betrayal and clashing cultures. 'My mother died
twice. I promised myself I would not let her story be forgotten'
Pembe and Adem Toprak leave Turkey for London. There they make new
lives for their family. Yet the traditions and beliefs of their
home come with them - carried in the blood of their children,
Iskender and Esma. Trapped by past mistakes, the Toprak children
find their lives torn apart and transformed by a brutal and
chilling crime. Set in Turkey and London in the 1970s, Honour
explores pain and loss, loyalty and betrayal, the clash of
tradition and modernity, as well as the love and heartbreak that
can tear any family apart. 'One of the best writers in the world
today' Hanif Kureishi 'Vivid storytelling... that explores the
darkest aspects of faith and love' Sunday Telegraph Elif Shafak's
latest novel The Island of Missing Trees is available for pre-order
