Publisher's Synopsis
The Bosphorus straight in Istanbul, Turkey flows between divided worlds- the East and the West, Asia and Europe. In a world split by culture, worldview, religion, lifestyle, and identity, Bosphorus acts as a living metaphor symbolizing the middle place of balance between all sides, an answer to the seemingly irresolvable conflicts we face in our contemporary global environment. Through the lives of each character- Abu Hamid Al-Jilani, Delphi O'Conner, Sabina Chagas and Jacob Stiller- they will reveal their most intimate thoughts as they stand at the edge of diverse worlds, struggling to find which side they belong to or whether their place lies somewhere in the middle, the place between, the Bosphorus.
