Description

At the Breakfast Table by Defne Suman is a powerful family saga that explores the complexities of hidden histories and family secrets. On the surface, it's a celebration of Shirin Saka's 100th birthday, but beneath lies a story of pain and revelation. As Shirin's grandchildren and great-grandchild gather to mark this milestone, they invite a friend and investigative journalist to interview her. But as the conversation unfolds, Shirin begins to express her deep-seated emotions through art, revealing a history that has been concealed for generations. This moving portrayal is both a testament to the enduring power of family bonds and a poignant exploration of the secrets we keep. With its finely textured prose, this novel offers a deeply human and achingly beautiful portrayal of one family's story, spanning almost a century.
