Shirin, Peri and Mona, they were the most unlikely of friends. They were the Sinner, the Believer and the Confused.
On a spring evening in Istanbul, Peri is on her way to a dinner party - a night of luxury a far cry from her upbringing.
But when her handbag is stolen her world shifts violently. She starts to doubt how she got here: a traumatic Istanbul childhood, student years in Oxford, the rebellious professor who led her and best friends Shirin and Mona to question everything - Islam, love, life, even God - and the scandal that tore them all apart.
Over one desperate night she tries to make sense of a past she has tried to forget - but can we ever escape who we once were?

Recenzii
An intelligent, fierce and beguiling read ― Financial Times
A thoughtful, charming book that offers a connection to other worlds, perspectives and possibilities ― Sunday Times
An intense, discursive and absorbing novel ― Observer
One of the most important writers at work today, Elif Shafak eloquently explores Turkey's tumultuous present and past. Her magnificent latest moves between Istanbul and Oxford in a fascinating exploration of faith and friendship, rich and poor, and the devastating clash of tradition and modernity ― Independent
A brilliant and moving novel. Elif Shafak writes about religion without superficiality or special pleading, retaining a sense of its impossible possibility or its possible impossibility. Three Daughters of Eve is a remarkable accomplishment
Elif Shafak's writing leaps off the page. In Three Daughters of Eve she takes us spine-tinglingly right under the skin of three women, exposing the strains of friendship through love and loss. An utterly engrossing read.
Shafak's topical 10th novel is both an interrogation and a defence of Muslim identity ― Financial Times
Luscious, heartbreaking, completely absorbing. It is a full-blown saga of emotion and character, straddling countries, cultures and languages, exploring its women's ambitions and desires; and at the same time a steady-eyed examination of the nameless rules - of femininity, duty, belief and behaviour - that keep us in line and under control. This is an absolutely consuming novel about women who know what they want, and a warning about the price we pay, written with the fluency and depth of an author at the very top of her game.
Exuberant, epic and comic, fantastical and realistic . . . like all good stories it conveys deeper meanings about human experience
