Aşk, Love, Amour

"Aşk, Love, Amour" by Melissa Adams is a cultural and linguistic exploration of love through Turkish, English, and French. Drawing from Istanbul's rich history as the bridge between East and West, this unique reference gathers words, idioms, and proverbs about love across three languages. It offers readers an ethnographic and poetic look into how different cultures express affection, passion, and spiritual devotion. At once a dictionary, cultural study, and love letter to language itself, the book is both scholarly and deeply personal, appealing to linguists, poets, travelers, and anyone fascinated by the many meanings of love.
