Disturbed and shaken by a reoccurring dream, the author seeks the truth about her father who had been an officer in the Turkish Army, What she uncovers changes everything she knows...
This is a beautiful and poignant tale of discovery that weaves its way through Turkey in the 1940's all the way up to the modern day.
This story is not indulgent and whimsical, even though it covers many genres - Romance, Family, Travel, Cookery, Memoir and History. It does this perfectly and manages to flow with readability. There is something to learn on every page and the writing is descriptive where it needs to be, capturing the imagination and factual in other places where called for.
This is a real hidden gem.
