Våra experter hjälper dig eftersöka "Honour" - utan extra kostnad

Glansholms Antikvariat har många tusentals böcker på lager - och över 10 miljoner böcker hos våra underleverantörer. Vi har en unik service till dig - efterlys boken och våra experter eftersöker den åt dig och återkommer inom några dagar.

Vad kommer boken att kosta? Normalpriserna för efterlysta böcker ligger mellan 120 kr och 380 kr beroende på utgåva, skick, tillgång, etc. Vi kan inte lämna ett pris förrän vi bedömt det enskilda exet. Har vi boken inne kan det ibland bli billigare och rariteter har ofta ett högre värde, att en bok är kostsam hindrar oss inte från att eftersöka och reservera den för våra kunder.

Är en efterlysning bindande? Nej, naturligtvis får du se bild, pris och skickbedömning innan du bestämmer dig. Men en efterlysning innebär ofta att vi låter ta in boken på lager och vi är därför naturligtvis tacksamma om du är seriöst intresserad och återkommer när vi kontaktar dig via epost.

Vänligen gör en efterlysning per bok! Varje bok behöver ett eget referensnummer för att vi ska kunna hantera efterlysningen.

Vi behandlar inte efterlysningar av ordinarie kurslitteratur.

Författar- presentation:	Elif Shafak

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"). "Vivid storytelling ...that explores the darkest aspects of faith and love". ("Sunday Telegraph"). "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] joins writers such as Hanif Kureishi, Zadie Smith, Monica Ali, Aamer Hussein, Andrea Levy, Hanan al-Shakyh and Leila Aboulela, who offer us fictional glimpses of London's Others". ("The Independent"). 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. Her work has been translated into more than thirty languages.
She is a contributor for "The Telegraph", "Guardian" and the "New York Times" and her TED talk on the politics of fiction has received 500 000 views since July 2010. She is married with two children and divides her time between Istanbul and London.
