Elif Shafak discusses her new book “The Island of Missing Trees.”

This summer, we've seen extreme weather spread everywhere. Turkey is one of the latest countries to be hit where at least 8 people have died in more than 100 wildfires in the last week. We are witnessing the slow destruction of the natural world -- an issue highlighted by the award-winning Turkish-British novelist Elif Shafak in her latest book, "The Island of Missing Trees."
