Shortlisted for the 2005 Independent Foreign Fiction Prize, Elif Shafak's The Flea Palace
is a moving and highly original novel about a group of individuals who
live in the same building and who together become embroiled in a
mystery.
By turns comic and tragic, The Flea Palace is an outstandingly original novel driven by an overriding sense of social justice.
Bonbon
Palace was once a stately apartment block in Istanbul. Now it is a
sadly dilapidated home to ten wildly different individuals and their
families.
There's a womanizing, hard-drinking academic with a
penchant for philosophy; a 'clean freak' and her lice-ridden daughter; a
lapsed Jew in search of true love; and a charmingly naïve mistress
whose shadowy past lurks in the building. When the rubbish at Bonbon
Palace is stolen, a mysterious sequence of events unfolds that result in
a soul-searching quest for truth.
