## Description

The Flea Palace [Shafak, Elif] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. The Flea Palace

Review: Another good work of Elif Shafak - excellent book, the ones that are neatly from Elif Shafak- It is interesting the way in which the writer has structured the book , with the beginning idea of ideas as lines , it ends in same line. The garbage is the connector , and we -readers- come across the inhabitants of the Bonbon Palace through different chapters and situations. It is possible to gather that the inhabitants in some way are like the building , they are very special in their idiosyncrasy and psychology. As reader we know some pieces of information because we have the knowledge of a previous chapter and some words connect people and situations. I really recommend to read this book if we are following Elif Shafak- It is easy to read and not easy to put aside !!!
Review: Translation PLEASE - I really wish I could read this book in the original language. The lines and large phrases of thought are incredibly broad stroked and give a wonderful third dimension to the flow of the book. But there is a problem - the language (and perhaps the author would chide me on the use of the word here) is often grammatical stilted. Can someone get this woman a better translator? A jewel of a thinker and a brilliant intellect.

### ⭐⭐⭐ The Flea Palace
*by A***N on August 1, 2025*

I loved the authors book The Bastard of Bagdad but I wasn't able to get into this book of hers, The Flea Palace. I was expecting a continuous story line but after getting into the story, I realized it was a collection of short stories about people living in this one apartment complex in Istanbul. As typical for me, if I have an expectation of what the book is about, I get disappointed if it's not what I had expected. I do very much like this authors writing though this particular book wasn't my favorite.
