From the Booker Prize finalist, author of The Island of Missing Trees, an enchanting new tale about three characters living along two great rivers, all connected by a single drop of water.

"Make place for Elif Shafak on your bookshelf. Make place for her in your heart too. You won't regret it."—Arundhati Roy, winner of the Booker Prize

In the ancient city of Nineveh, on the bank of the River Tigris, King Ashurbanipal of Mesopotamia, erudite but ruthless, built a great library that would crumble with the end of his reign. From its ruins, however, emerged a poem, the Epic of Gilgamesh, that would infuse the existence of two rivers and bind together three lives.

In 1840 London, Arthur is born beside the stinking, sewage-filled River Thames. With an abusive, alcoholic father and a mentally ill mother, Arthur’s only chance of escaping destitution is his brilliant memory. When his gift earns him a spot as an apprentice at a leading publisher, Arthur’s world opens up far beyond the slums, and one book in particular catches his interest: Nineveh and Its Remains.

In 2014 Turkey, Narin, a ten-year-old Yazidi girl, is diagnosed with a rare disorder that will soon cause her to go deaf. Before that happens, her grandmother is determined to baptize her in a sacred Iraqi temple. But with the rising presence of ISIS and the destruction of the family’s ancestral lands along the Tigris, Narin is running out of time.

In 2018 London, the newly divorced Zaleekah, a hydrologist, moves into a houseboat on the Thames to escape her husband. Orphaned and raised by her wealthy uncle, Zaleekah had made the decision to take her own life in one month, until a curious book about her homeland changes everything.

A dazzling feat of storytelling, There Are Rivers in the Sky entwines these outsiders with a single drop of water, a drop which remanifests across the centuries. Both a source of life and harbinger of death, rivers—the Tigris and the Thames—transcend history, transcend fate: “Water remembers. It is humans who forget.”

My New Holy Grail! ⟡
Size: 8.45 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Finally Azelaic Acid that don't break me out. I've tried US skincare and they are nothing but harsh to my skin. I've tried korean skin care before but I guess I wasn't buying the product that targets my skin concerns. Now that I'm giving korean skin care a second go, it did not disappoint! I can see my skin improving! ⟡

I love Korean skincare and have been wanting to try Anua for a while, but I always found it a little on the pricier side. I was placing a Black Friday order and snagged this toner for $15, and I’m so glad I did! I originally wanted to try their azelaic acid serum, but since I already use a lot of serums, seeing it in toner form felt perfect — and it really is. I’ve been using this morning and night, and my skin already looks brighter. I have a lot of acne scarring, and even in the short time I’ve been using this, I’ve noticed visible improvement. It’s super gentle, not harsh at all, and has a light, pleasant scent (which doesn’t seem like added fragrance). My skin is extremely acne-prone, and this hasn’t broken me out whatsoever. If anything, it feels calming. So far I’ve truly enjoyed this product, and I definitely recommend it if you’re looking for something soothing that actually helps with texture, spots, and overall clarity!
