"The Forty Rules of Love" by Elif Shafak intertwines two parallel narratives: one set in the 13th century following the spiritual journey of the famous poet Rumi and his mentor Shams of Tabriz, and the other in contemporary times, centered around Ella Rubinstein, an American housewife and literary agent. Through the lens of Ella's transformative encounter with a manuscript about Rumi and Shams, the novel explores themes of love, spirituality, and personal growth.
