The Front List: Elif Shafak

Elif Shafak has published 21 books, including 13 acclaimed novels, and been translated into 58 languages.

Following a sold out event discussing There are Rivers in the Sky in 2024, today’s special celebratory event sees Shafak – a powerful advocate for women’s and LGBTQ+ rights and freedom of speech – reflects on her rich career to date, what it means to be a truly global author and citizen, and the impact of putting her personal and political beliefs into tangible action.
