Rumi and the Red Handbag by Shawna Lemay

Fiction. Shortlisted for the Alberta Reader's Choice Award. What is the soul? asks Rumi, the poet. If I could taste one sip of an answer, I could break out of this prison for drunks.

RUMI AND THE RED HANDBAG follows the lives of Shaya and Ingrid-Simone, working together one winter at a second-hand clothing shop. Theodora's Fine Consignment Clothing shop becomes a small world where Shaya, an academic who abandoned studying the secrets of women writers, finds in Ingrid-Simone a reason to begin writing again, on scraps of paper and post-its. Fresh, unique and intelligent, RUMI AND THE RED HANDBAG is a journey to the Museum of Bags and Purses in Amsterdam, a journey to find Rumi, the soul, and the secret hidden in a red handbag.
