The Forty Rules Of Love By Eleif Shafak

Elif Shafak's beloved novel weaves two stories across eight centuries: Ella Rubenstein, an unhappily married housewife in contemporary Massachusetts, and the extraordinary friendship between the poet Rumi and the wandering dervish Shams of Tabriz in 13th-century Konya. As Ella reads a manuscript about their bond, her own carefully ordered life begins to unravel and remake itself in surprising ways.

Structured around forty Sufi-inspired rules on the nature of love, this is a novel about passion in all its forms — romantic, spiritual, and transformative. Lyrical, wise, and deeply moving, it has captivated millions of readers worldwide. A wonderful gift for lovers of literary fiction and anyone drawn to stories of personal awakening.
