Produktbeschreibung
Secrets of the Palaces reveals the hidden side of the Ottoman Empire during its late heyday. Author Amin Arslan blends narrative and political analysis in an engaging way that combines fact and fiction. By tracing the events in the Ottoman palaces from the reign of Sultan Osman III to Sultan Abdul Hamid II, the author exposes the manifestations of moral and social corruption within the ruling family. This contrasts with his portrayal of the character of "Aisha," who grew up among the poor despite her Ottoman origins and grew up to become a voice for justice and a defender of the oppressed. The novel is not merely a love story or a historical tale; rather, it is a cry for reform that reflects the consciousness of the Arab elite at the end of the nineteenth century, when the Ottoman Empire was crumbling under the weight of internal and external crises. With a suspenseful style and vibrant events, the book presents a blend of politics, love, and history, revealing the struggle between corruption and reform, between luxurious palaces and poor houses, in a captivating literary form.
