Competing in Peri's mind, however, are the memories invoked by her almost-lost polaroid, of the time years earlier when she was sent abroad for the first time, to attend Oxford University. Over the course of the dinner, and amidst an opulence that is surely ill-begotten, terrorist attacks occur across the city. THREE DAUGHTERS OF EVE is set over an evening in contemporary Istanbul, as Peri arrives at the party and navigates the tensions that simmer in this crossroads country between East and West, religious and secular, rich and poor. A relic from a past - and a love - Peri had tried desperately to forget. As she wrestles to get it back, a photograph falls to the ground - an old polaroid of three young women and their university professor.
Peri, a married, wealthy, beautiful Turkish woman, is on her way to a dinner party at a seaside mansion in Istanbul when a beggar snatches her handbag. The stunning, timely new novel from the acclaimed, internationally bestselling author of THE ARCHITECT'S APPRENTICE and THE BASTARD OF ISTANBUL.
