Pīshʹnivīsʹhā dar chihil qānūn-i ʻishq-i Alīf Shāfāk

Authored by Maryam Dādāshī, Pīshʹnivīsʹhā dar chihil qānūn-i ʻishq-i Alīf Shāfāk is a contemporary Persian literary work that engages deeply with Elif Shafak's celebrated novel, The Forty Rules of Love. Written shortly after the author's immersion in Shafak's narrative, this book reimagines and expands upon the spiritual and emotional journey of the character Ella. Through a series of reflective "drafts," Dādāshī weaves a tale of awakening, transformation, and the pursuit of authentic love, offering readers a fresh perspective on the intersection of human relationships and divine connection. This work stands as both a tribute to the original text and an independent exploration of the enduring power of love in the modern world.
