Watch Elif Shafak read from her new novel 10 Minutes 38 Seconds in this Strange World

Courtesy of our friends at Penguin, here's peerless writer and activist Elif Shafak-author of international bestsellers The Bastard of Istanbul and Three Daughters of Eve-reading from her latest novel 10 Minutes 38 Seconds in this Strange World.
A prostitute called Leila is dying in a back street of Istanbul. In the minutes following her last breath, her neurons still firing, she’s assailed by sensual memories-tastes, smells-which meld together into the tale of a full, vibrant life. From the devastation of abuse to the liberation of friendship, Shafak weaves a poignantly portrait of humanity, peppered with her own ardent condemnation of an oppressive patriarchal society. This is a compassionate, soul-stirring literary triumph from an exquisite storyteller that continues to beguile readers the world over.
