Reviews
'In At the Breakfast Table , Defne Suman, one of Turkey's most popular writers, writes about family secrets, people's inner problems, love and the losses through life. Suman builds on Eastern philosophy and yoga, among other things, when she is to shed light on the book's great secret' Anne Buset Vassbotn (Norway) 'It is very easy for Greek readers to love Suman, to identify with her heroes, to look for their own ancestral memories among the memories of her heroes. But the most important thing about a novel is that it hides a beautiful story, and the author knows how to tell it' Erika Athanasiou (Greece) 'The image of the Prinkipo island with its carriages, bicycles, the blue sea that surrounds it, its blooming flowers and purple bougainvillea, give a brilliant tone to the novel. The historical touch offers realism and mystery' Lefki Sarantinou (Greece) ' At the Breakfast Table is an excellent novel in the footsteps of modern Turkish literature as defined by Livaneli and Pamuk. It is a well-written book which reminds us that history is not necessarily what we learn in school' Angelos Koutsoukis (Greece) 'Suman listens and understands a wounded geography with an open heart - a trait that is rarely found among Turkish intellectuals. She challenges the common belief and narrates beautifully' Derya Beyatli, Yeni Düzen Newspaper (Turkey), "A story lovingly told of very intensely personal conflicts and...the history and pain of an entire people." -- Booklist Reviews, "In At the Breakfast Table , Defne Suman, one of Turkey's most popular writers, writes about family secrets, people's inner problems, love and the losses through life. Suman builds on Eastern philosophy and yoga, among other things, when she is to shed light on the book's great secret" --Anne Buset Vassbotn (Norway) "It is very easy for Greek readers to love Suman, to identify with her heroes, to look for their own ancestral memories among the memories of her heroes.

She challenges the common belief and narrates beautifully" --Derya Beyatli, Yeni Düzen Newspaper (Turkey) "In At the Breakfast Table Suman continues to explore the themes and tropes that prevail in her previous novels, presenting them to the reader in new dimensions... Altogether, these premises establish a narrative network of signification, through which the philosophical core of Suman's work can be discerned'" --Ülker Gökberk, Reed College "Defne Suman brings lightness to the hearts of her readers as the characters of At the Breakfast Table reclaim their identity and freedom from the burden of family secrets and the false pretense of living as if no sin has been committed in this land" --Yaprak Çetinkaya, Pozitif Magazine (Turkey) "Captivates readers with its plot but engages them on a deeper level with its historic and psychological detail" -- Asymtote Journal "A nuanced, beautifully paced novel, featuring an attentively drawn cast of characters and an immersive sense of place" -- The Age "Cleverly done... The story is set on a beautiful holiday island whose ambience is expertly conveyed" -- Historical Novel Society, "Fiercely intelligent, finely textured and achingly beautiful." -- Elif Shafak 'In At the Breakfast Table , Defne Suman, one of Turkey's most popular writers, writes about family secrets, people's inner problems, love and the losses through life.

Great seller with great communication! Item arrived complete, as described and for a good price. There was a bit of an issue with tracking the order at one point (not the seller's fault), but seller was proactive in reaching out to the carrier and myself to get everything back on track. Arrived when expected.
