Conversations across disciplines bring in fresh perspectives. Reading should be diverse. Well said!!

Great. I'm just amazed by clearity of her thoughts and speech. What a spontaneous and coherent way she explains her point of view. Reading her and listening her is same good and attractive. Love you lady. " Forty rules of love" changed my perspective about life and love.

[@cmxsprt]

I love that authors take the time to put their knowledge and thoughts into writing for the benefit of others.

[@ssiemphande2483]

One of my best authors yet. So much love for Elif Shafak all the way from Kenya. Such a phenomenal & gifted author.

[@carolking6355]

Brilliant comments. I have been an avid reader from the age of six. My dad always read to me when I went to bed each night before I could read and I would know and say so when he skipped a page much to his chagrin. Going to the cartoons on Saturday I would ask him what the subtitles said. He would say I will tell you later. I couldn’t wait to learn to read and 70 years later my house is full of books and I still get a thrill as I read a new book. Whether new or 2nd hand. How I love a good book.

[@yulduztursunboyeva2761]

I'm eternally grateful for you. I felt really touched when I read the book " Forty rules of love.

Elif Shafaq,haqiqatdan,mahoratli yozuvchi, uning "Ishqqa oid 40 qoida" asari juda ta'sirli,uni o'qigan inson o'zidan ishni,o'zligini qidira boshlaydi. Unda havoyi hislar,o'tkinchi vaqtinchalik sevgi bilan abadiy,pok ISHQ farqlanadi,taassurotlar juda ko'p,hammaga o'qib chiqishni tavsiya qilaman. Bir marta o'qiganda odamga juda yoqib qoladi,ishonavering!!!

and for me her book ASK changed my life and what is more impressive is that I lived the same story as ELLA and it is a person who has already read the book who noticed this and when I I read in my turn I was speechless and even that I had already written the same poem as Rumi without knowing it and when I read that of Rumi I was shocked

I am going to read more books of yours!!🙏❤️

[@aekpdx2025]

Sufism took differant faces on all faiths but in islam was more spiritual becuase Sufism came out of Baghdad at a time when it was the capital of the world and a fine civilization. Religion played an important role. Sufism was an escape from material life and replaced it with a happier spiritual life.
