Description (ENG)
"10 Minutes 38 Seconds in This Strange World" is a novel by Elif Şafak that tells the story of Tequila Leila, a sex worker living in Istanbul whose life comes to an abrupt end after being murdered. The book follows her through her final ten minutes and thirty-eight seconds of consciousness as she reflects on her past, including her difficult childhood and her relationships with her chosen family of outcasts. Each chapter of the novel is named after a different stage of brain activity after death, reflecting on the idea that while the physical body may be gone, memories and experiences continue to live on. Through Tequila Leila's story, Şafak explores themes of identity, belonging, and the power of connection even in the face of societal marginalization.
