Turkish writer Elif Shafak has won international acclaim for her moving novels of love and misunderstanding that weave together Eastern and Western motifs. Two twin sisters are born in a village on the border of Turkey and Syria, where girls are valued for their purity and obedience, and where inappropriate behavior by women can serve as a pretext for honor killings. After all, honor is often the only thing a poor man has left. One of the sisters, Jamila, becomes a local midwife, and the other, Pimby, marries and goes to London with her husband. But life in England does not work out. Edim, Pimby's husband, leaves her. From loneliness and unsettled, Pimby throws herself into the arms of another man. And Iskender, who became the eldest in the family after his father's departure, understands that he must stand up for the family's honor. But he also realizes that he can hurt the man he loves with all his heart....
