Description
"The Forty Rules of Love" is a novel by Elif Shafak that weaves together two parallel narratives set centuries apart. One storyline follows the journey of Ella Rubinstein, a middle-aged Jewish housewife and mother living in suburban Massachusetts, who becomes enthralled by a novel she is asked to review. This novel tells the story of the famous Sufi poet Rumi and his spiritual mentor, the wandering dervish known as Shams of Tabriz, in 13th-century Turkey.
Through Ella's exploration of the novel, she encounters the teachings and philosophy of Sufism, particularly through the "forty rules of love" which Shams imparts to Rumi. These rules encapsulate profound wisdom about love, life, and spirituality, challenging Ella's perspectives on her own life and relationships.
The novel blends historical fiction with spiritual insights, exploring themes of love in its various forms—romantic, divine, and human. It delves into the transformative power of love and the spiritual journey towards self-discovery and enlightenment. Through its rich storytelling and philosophical depth, "The Forty Rules of Love" invites readers to reflect on the nature of love, faith, and the pursuit of a meaningful life.
