About this book

On Cyprus, a love affair between a Greek Cypriot girl and a Turkish Cypriot boy unfolds beneath a fig tree during a period of communal conflict. Decades later, their daughter tries to understand the silences and grief that have travelled with her family to London. One section is narrated by the fig tree itself, lending the novel a gentle, unusual perspective without leaving its emotional reality. Elif Shafak braids memory, migration, ecology, and inherited trauma into an atmospheric story of love and fracture.
