From the Booker Prize finalist author of The Island of Missing Trees, an enchanting new tale about three characters living along two rivers, all under the shadow of one of the greatest epic poems of all time.
A dazzling feat of storytelling, There Are Rivers in the Sky entwines these outsiders with a single drop of water, a drop which remanifests across the centuries. Both a source of life and harbinger of death, rivers—the Tigris and the Thames—transcend history, transcend fate: “Water remembers. It is humans who forget.”

Критика
STEPHEN MARKLEY, THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
"Engaging and melancholy ... Fascinating rabbit holes ... Shafak's language often takes on the cadence of a fable, a poetic rhythm that can vary between beauty and a tendency to hold the reader's hand ... With gorgeous writing throughout and many particularly stunning paragraphs that you'll want to mark up and return to, these are the moments when There Are Rivers in the Sky explodes into a roaring journey through ecology and memory ... When the puzzle pieces fit into place, and the fates of the present-day characters collide, the final twist is both contrived and genuinely moving."
