In this powerful, uplifting plea for conscious optimism, Booker Prize-nominated novelist and activist Elif Shafak draws on her own memories and delves into the power of stories to bring us together. In the process, she reveals how listening to each other can nurture democracy, empathy and our faith in a kinder and wiser future.Author: Shafak, Elif,author Contributors: Shafak, Elif,author Binding: paperback Number Of Pages: 96 Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Edition: Main Published/Release Date: 27 Aug 2020 Format: Paperback / softback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Profile Books Ltd Author/Director/Artist: Elif Shafak Dimension (cm): 176x110x18 mm Package Dimension (cm): 11x176x111 mm Item Weight (g): 80 Package Weight (g): 70
