You know what Gülten Akın says,
'Oh, nobody has time
To stop and understand the finer things
While I was intending to read this book, a friend said, 'What kind of useless books are you reading?' He made the sentence to me. I only responded to him with a broken smile. Because no one has time to understand the fine things...
For this reason, while recommending this book, I give a preliminary warning that 'people with a kind soul should definitely read it'. Because the world of flowers, which is seen as a waste of time by some, is seen by others as one of the doors opening towards God...
Our researcher writer presents flowery paths to us, his readers and genius enthusiasts, based on the Şükûfenames, which are widely found in literature. While reading, we literally step from one rose garden to another. So much so that in some pages the reader is enchanted by the scents of daffodils, violets, lily pads and irises.
The Book of Roses taught me many things, but most of all,
He taught me the meaning of the sentence "For those who know how to care, every flower is actually something more than itself."
I now know how blessed it is to smile when I look at a rose...
When I see a water lily, I begin to remember the moans of Narcissus, who fell in love with himself...
When I come across a tulip, I start to think that the blackness of its belly is due to lightning...
So I no longer see flowers as just flowers. Even when I look at this book in this state, I am filled with happiness.
I praised too much
I recommend it cautiously to those with a gentle soul and strongly to book readers...
Stay with books and flowers, friends...
