La historia de una familia kurdo-turca que se traslada a Londres en los años 70 sirve de motor narrativo para contar el difícil encaje de tradiciones distintas. Nacieron del mismo vientre y casi al mismo tiempo: Pembe y Jamila eran gemelas, hijas de una familia numerosa que vivía en un pequeño pueblo de Kurdistán, pero la voluntad del padre las separó y llevó sus vidas por caminos distintos. En 1970 Pembe y su marido Adem se trasladan a Londres, en busca de un mejor destino para sus hijos Alex, Esma y Yunus, dejando a Jamila en el pueblo, aunque el matrimonio está destinado al fracaso desde el principio. Harta de soportar un marido infiel y jugador, Pembe se aleja poco a poco de Adem y encuentra finalmente a un hombre con quien compartir su destino, pero Alex entiende esta nueva relación de la madre como una enfrenta al honor de la familia y toma cartas en el asunto, sin darse cuenta de que está cometiendo un error que marcará a la familia para siempre. De un pequeño pueblo de Kurdistán a Londres, pasando por Estambul y Abu Dhabi, Elif Shafak ha urdido una trama apasionante y polémica para su nueva novela. Con ella vamos a recorrer los hilos de una historia donde la tradición de Oriente y Occidente muestran su lado más oscuro: cuando se habla y se actúa en nombre de un honor que ya no tiene dueño ni sentido, se anda en la desgracia, y los cuerpos de Pembe y Jamila ahí están para contestar a quien pregunte. «Cuando tenía siete años, uno de nuestros vecinos, sastre de profesión, a menudo pegaba a su esposa. Por la noche, todo el vecindario oía los gritos, los golpes, los insultos, pero por la mañana cada cual se ocupaba de lo suyo, como si nadie hubiera visto ni oído nada... Esta novela está dedicada a los que quieren oír y ver.» Elif Shafak

An honor killing shatters and transforms the lives of Turkish immigrants in 1970s London in this novel from the author of The Island of Missing Trees (a Reese's Book Club pick) Internationally bestselling Turkish author Elif Shafak’s new novel is a dramatic tale of families, love, and misunderstandings that follows the destinies of twin sisters born in a Kurdish village. While Jamila stays to become a midwife, Pembe follows her Turkish husband, Adem, to London, where they hope to make new lives for themselves and their children. In London, they face a choice: stay loyal to the old traditions or try their best to fit in. After Adem abandons his family, Iskender, the eldest son, must step in and become the one who will not let any shame come to the family name. And when Pembe begins a chaste affair with a man named Elias, Iskender will discover that you could love someone with all your heart and yet be ready to hurt them. Just published to great acclaim in England, Honor is a powerful, gripping exploration of guilt and innocence, loyalty and betrayal, and the trials of the immigrant, as well as the love and heartbreak that too often tear families apart.

From the Orange Prize long-listed and award-winning author of The Forty Rules of Love and The Bastard of Istanbul Elif Shafak, Honour is a novel of love, betrayal and a clash of cultures. 'My mother died twice. I promised myself I would not let her story be forgotten . . .' Leaving her twin sister behind, Pembe leaves Turkey for love - following her husband Adem to London. There the Topraks hope to make new lives for themselves and their children. Yet, no matter how far they travel, the traditions and beliefs the Topraks left behind stay with them - carried in the blood. Their eldest is the boy Iskender, who remembers Turkey and feels betrayal deeper than most. His sister is Esma, who is loyal and true despite the pain and heartache. And, lastly, Yunus, who was born in London, and is shy and different. Trapped by the mistakes of the past, the Toprak children find their lives shattered and transformed by a brutal act of murder . . . A powerful novel set in Turkey and London in the 1970s, Honour explores pain and loss, loyalty and betrayal, the trials of the immigrant, the clash of tradition and modernity, as well as the love and heartbreak that too often tears families apart. 'A powerful book; thoughtful, provoking and compassionate' Joanne Harris, author of Chocolat 'Rich and wide as the Euphrates river along whose banks it begins and ends, Elif Shafak has woven with masterful care and compassion one immigrant family's heartbreaking story - a story nurtured in the terrible silences between men and women trying to grow within ancient ways, all the while growing past them. I loved this book' Sarah Blake, author of The Postmistress Elif Shafak is the acclaimed author of The Bastard of Istanbul and The Forty Rules of Love and is the most widely read female novelist in Turkey.

La extraordinària història d’Esma, una jove kurda que viu a Londres, es remunta tres generacions enrere, amb el naixement de la seva mare i la germana bessona d’aquesta, en un poble a la vora del riu Èufrates. La vida d’aquestes bessones tindrà un destí molt diferent al que qualsevol podria imaginar. Un destí que es veurà tacat de sang amb un tràgic assassinat ocorregut anys més tard a Londres, i que podria estar relacionat amb la pròpia història d’Esma. “La vibrant narració d’ Elif Shafak sempre és la guia dels seus personatges.” Chicago Tribune

El Diccionario de la Democracia contiene la teoría y la ideología de los regímenes democráticos: sus antecedentes; orígenes; principios; modalidades de deliberación y leyes; sus instituciones clave y variedades, acorde con la clase social que los dirija y el arreglo institucional correlativo. Asimismo compara sus principios, leyes e instituciones con otros regímenes, particularmente con sus opuestos, las oligarquías o gobiernos de pocos, pero también con la república, la tiranía y la realeza; las razones de Estado que permiten su conquista, conservación y estabilidad; las fuentes internas y externas que los amenazan; las maneras de corromperse y las revoluciones que los afectan. Trata también de los usos, costumbres y caracteres democráticos; inventaría los rasgos éticos de la vida democrática, por sí mismos y comprobados con los de los ricos, las clases medias y los tiranos, hasta detallar las relaciones que sostienen entre sí dirigentes y dirigidos, hombres y mujeres, viejos, jóvenes, maestros y alumnos, ciudadanos y animales..., por el impacto que la libertad e igualdad popular tienen en la vida pública y privada de sus pueblos. Parte medular del mismo es la exposición de las doctrinas, dogmas, leyes e instituciones del modelo liberal moderno de la democracia; un credo que se analiza en calidad de justificación del nouveau régime por parte de sus ideólogos modernos más destacados y lúcidos, quienes desvían el significado de las palabras ] democracia ] y ] liberal ] atribuidas sin más a los Estados modernos.
