I loved this book。 I bought it on my way to Lebanon， passing by Turkey。 I wanted to read to a Turkish author and found the book。It was a beautiful discovery。 As a Lebanese Christian， I enjoyed the references to the Quran。 Surprisingly， I discovered that I knew and understood a lot of verses she was referring to just by being Lebanese and as part of the culture I grew up in。There is a principle of Islam that she referred to submission that I clearly understood and specifically appreciated 。 It pa I loved this book。 I bought it on my way to Lebanon， passing by Turkey。 I wanted to read to a Turkish author and found the book。It was a beautiful discovery。 As a Lebanese Christian， I enjoyed the references to the Quran。 Surprisingly， I discovered that I knew and understood a lot of verses she was referring to just by being Lebanese and as part of the culture I grew up in。There is a principle of Islam that she referred to submission that I clearly understood and specifically appreciated 。 It parallels a lot of Christian principles to accept the things we cannot change。 I had a superficial knowledge of Rumi and Sufism and the book sparked my interest in this philosophy。The only thing that shocked me is the way Ella left her family ， mainly her children。 The author should have expanded on or may be smoothed out her departure。 She should also have made Ella more lovable 。 She should have given her may be more qualities and more depth of character。 Overall， I highly recommend the book。 。。。more

Marija ，

Beautiful story about different kinds of love - family love， sibling love， friendship love， romantic love， religious love and self love。 Told in two time frames - the present 2008 America and the 13th century Turkey， this quest for love that changes a person tells us a story of Ella Rubenstein， a modern desperate housewife unsatisfied with her life， and a story of master Rumi and his friendship with young dervish Shams of Tabriz and Shams' Forty rules of love。 Upon discovering a book of Rumi and Beautiful story about different kinds of love - family love， sibling love， friendship love， romantic love， religious love and self love。 Told in two time frames - the present 2008 America and the 13th century Turkey， this quest for love that changes a person tells us a story of Ella Rubenstein， a modern desperate housewife unsatisfied with her life， and a story of master Rumi and his friendship with young dervish Shams of Tabriz and Shams' Forty rules of love。 Upon discovering a book of Rumi and Shams friendship， Ella's life starts to take a drastically different turn that will set her on a path of self-discovery。 No one ever before wrote with so much emotion and wisdom as Mrs。 Shafak， and I am very glad I have read this book during pandemic cause it filled me with such warmth and positivity that I will 100% re-read this once in near future。 Also， didn't know a thing about sufism or Rumi（considered by many a Shakespeare of East Asia） so it was great to learn something new。 I loved the way the novel was structured too。 Polyphonic narration was honestly the best way to learn about Shams and Rumi's friendship and characters and 13th century turkish society。 And I just adore the way Elif never shies away from speaking about disjust， envy， prejudices， cruelty， bigotry and hatred that rules in society， but writes boldly about people on its margines - beggars， alcoholics， prostitutes， dervishes and other outcasts that dare to be themselves even if that brings them nothing but misery（which is also present and more discussed in her newest novel „10 minutes and 38 seconds in this wonderful world”）。 It is always this feeling of belonging， hope， honesty and warmth that makes me want to re-read her novel as soon as I'm finished with my reading journey。 。。。more

I am beguiled， enlightened， pleased with myself。 I am depressed， rapturous， empty。 I am all these things at once， and cannot begin to separate one from the other。These were my thoughts as I finished reading 'The Forty Rules of Love' earlier today。 As I was only halfway through the book， my mind was already wrapped in the cocoon of verses from Rumi and Shams of Tabriz。 I'll admit that initially it took me quite some time to get my head around the story， mostly because it has been a long while sin I am beguiled， enlightened， pleased with myself。 I am depressed， rapturous， empty。 I am all these things at once， and cannot begin to separate one from the other。These were my thoughts as I finished reading 'The Forty Rules of Love' earlier today。 As I was only halfway through the book， my mind was already wrapped in the cocoon of verses from Rumi and Shams of Tabriz。 I'll admit that initially it took me quite some time to get my head around the story， mostly because it has been a long while since I picked up a book so deep and presenting a number of point of views throughout the story。 Though the different POVs help to paint a more expansive picture of the plot， they might pose a challenge to new and infrequent readers。The book is a contemporary love story of a housewife， Ella and a writer， Aziz Z。 Zahara， narrated across the backdrop of the excruciatingly beauteous tale of love between Shams and Rumi。 Ella reads a manuscript， named 'Sweet Blasphemy'， about the Sufi poet Rumi and Shams of Tabriz， and sets off on a journey of finding herself， and discovering love in the most unexpected of ways。 The book is divided into 5 parts - each depicting the 5 elements of Sufism - earth， water， fire， wind， and the void。 We are aware of all these elements， all but one - the void。 The void depicts things that are present around us through their absence。 The inexplicable and uncontrollable divine element that we as human beings cannot comprehend and yet should always be aware of。 As Ella continues with her literary assignment， she can't help but realize the similarities between hers and Rumi's stories。 Just like Shams made ripped apart Rumi's personality， and transformed him into an advocate of love， we see that Ella too， is liberated of her old， unhappy self by Zahara's compassion。Elif Shafak wrote in a segment 'Dreaming In English' （this is separate from the novel） that absence is actually a bond and distance can help you to look closer。 Though she wrote it for her love and connection with the English language， I can't help but connect this phrase to the story of Rumi。 Rumi was a scholar， a preacher， a faqih， but when Shams， a wandering dervish， came into his life， as his spiritual instructor， a guide， a companion， and much， much more， Rumi transformed into a rare ruby。 Shams challenged all that Rumi held dear， broke him down to nothing and built him again。 Throughout the book， Shams preaches about the 40 Rules of Love， which I think， we all already know in our hearts， but are too ignorant or wrapped up in the materialisms of the world to realize。 Rumi was no poet， but the death of his love， his Shams， filled him with poetry。 Rumi says， 'My chest is a cave where Shams is resting。 Just as a mountain keeps an echo inside itself， I hold the voice of Shams within。' The rule that resonated with me the most was， "Fret not where the road will take you。 Instead focus on the first step。 That's the hardest part and that's what you are responsible for。 Once you take that step let everything do what it naturally does and the rest will follow。 Do not go with the flow。 Be the flow。" 。。。more

Though initially it felt all over the place and over the top， it really gets into groove in the last 150 pages。 More than the rules， I loved the stories Shamz saya as examples！

Ana Coric ，

I find the book intriguing in many ways， but it attempts to do too many things at once。 I found the two storylines interesting and complementary but sometimes competing with each other as well， with neither one really giving a satisfying narrative。 I would probably still read another book from this author， but for anyone looking for a dreamy， philosophical book about love and spirituality， this is a good pick。 I would’ve loved to give it 3，5 stars， but alas， such is Goodreads。

One of the best spiritual book，， which has love， religion and compassion 。 It gives you insight about what love is 。。 it can be in any form and with anyone 。。。 The love in 12th century no different than the 21st century 。。。 Two stories of Rumi and Sham other Life of Ella 。。goes parallel explaining the Forty rules of love 💕

This novel is a tough one for me to review。 Whilst I know it’s adored by many， I liked parts of it and wasn’t mad about others。 However， I definitely came out of it knowing that Elif Shafak is an amazing author。。I can only imagine how much research must have gone into writing a book like this and I admire her for that。The novel has dual narratives。 One based in contemporary times where Ella， a forty something American woman， is struggling in a marriage that she’s unhappy in。 Upon reading a manus This novel is a tough one for me to review。 Whilst I know it’s adored by many， I liked parts of it and wasn’t mad about others。 However， I definitely came out of it knowing that Elif Shafak is an amazing author。。I can only imagine how much research must have gone into writing a book like this and I admire her for that。The novel has dual narratives。 One based in contemporary times where Ella， a forty something American woman， is struggling in a marriage that she’s unhappy in。 Upon reading a manuscript based on the mystical poems of the 13th century poet Rumi and his whirling dervish companion Shams of Tabriz， she is introduced to his forty rules of life and love。 The other narrative throughout the novel introduces us to Shams of Tabriz and how his life as a dervish was destined to accompany Rumi。 I have to say I enjoyed these chapters hugely throughout the novel， as they captured my imagination more and showed a variety of characters。 It’s in these chapters that we learn Rumi’s forty rules and how they can be applied to our lives。I would definitely recommend this novel。 I think I would have enjoyed it a lot more if it was solely based in Rumi and Sham’s world。 I found Ella’s chapters somewhat boring and wanted to nearly skip over them， though of course I didn’t！ If you， like me though， love to read stories set in different times where you are educated on something new， then you’ll probably find this a winner。 。。。more
