From the award-winning author Elif Shafak, nominated for the Orange Prize for "The Forty Rules of Love" and "The Architect's Apprentice," "Honor" is a story of love, betrayal, and clashing cultures. A powerful book; thoughtful, provocative, and compassionate. "My mother died twice. I promised myself that her story would not be forgotten." Pembe leaves her twin sister and travels from Turkey out of love to follow her husband Adem to London. There, the Topraks hope to build a new life for themselves and their children. But no matter how far they travel, the traditions and beliefs that the Topraks have left behind remain with them, carried in their blood. Their eldest son Iskender remembers Turkey and feels betrayal more deeply than most. His sister Esma is loyal and faithful, despite the pain and sorrow. And finally, Yunus, who was born in London and is shy.
