«Las tres pasiones» is the novel by Elif Shafak published by Lumen in paperback (504 pages, in Spanish).
Peri, a young woman between Istanbul and Oxford, is torn between her father's political ideas and her mother's faith. An eccentric professor leads her to question truth and explore Bertrand Russell's three passions: love, knowledge, and compassion. The novel interweaves that quest with the tension between tradition and modernity, ignorance and power.
The book belongs to Lumen's Narrativa collection. The 2016 edition includes flaps.
For readers of contemporary fiction interested in identity, religion, and politics, and for book clubs.
