Goodbye Iran

Based on a true story

I recently published a book, Goodbye Iran which is the true story of two young men, Hossein and Hamid, and a young woman, Afsaneh, who in 1983 decide to escape from the repressive and institutionalized land of their birth in search of a better life. The book follows them on their real-life journey, full of difficult decisions, intense joys, and bitter disappointments as they set sail to say goodbye to Iran forever>>>

NOVEL

Honour

Shafak ditches clichés to provide the other side of the story

Elif Shafak’s latest novel tells the story of the Toprak family, and the troubles that befall them after an illicit extra-marital affair takes place>>>

Say ants.
What made them small is time.
They are old.
They've seen catastrophes
that dwarf all our storms combined,
seen burning heat, bitter cold.
