SUSIE BOYT, FINANCIAL TIMES (UK)

"... a strong and enthralling work; its world of superstition, natural beauty and harsh tribal loyalties becomes your world. Its dense mazes of memory make you set aside your own. It blurs the boundaries between history and natural history in profound and original ways ... War and love and violence are daringly mixed in this novel ... Shafak...writes with great control about despair ... The push and pull of teenage emotion is also captured with precision. We see Ada’s thinking mature, experiencing her shifts in perception incrementally. Resisting the urge to simplify or judge is a recurring theme ... a complex and powerful work in which the harrowing material settles on the reader delicately."

SPENCER QUONG, THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW

"... with its complex structure — the setting jumps from contemporary London to Cyprus in 1974 and the early 2000s, and many chapters are told from the perspective of a fig tree — Shafak’s novel conveys how our ancestors’ stories can reach us obliquely, unconsciously ... If Shafak’s prose is occasionally cloying, leaning heavily into nature metaphors, The Island of Missing Trees is not overly sentimental. Shafak is cleareyed about how difficult it is to reach across the gulfs within our families: At the end of the novel, Ada is only beginning to learn about her history, and her grief."
