New English Paperback. Pbo. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In French. 229 p. Ills. Lorsque la sultane Alié apprend que son époux l'a trahie avec une belle esclave, Ikbal, sa jalousie se déchaîne. Quant à la pauvre laveuse de hammam, Fatma, elle reçoit une mystérieuse corbeille dissimulant un nouveau-né. Désormais, la haine d'Alié va la poursuivre sans relâche. Complots machiavéliques et péripéties spectaculaires se succèdent alors, entraînant de nouveaux personnages dans les intrigues manigancées par la sultane. Sa soif de vengeance demeurera-t-elle inextinguible? La fin du règne d'Abdülmecit, les relations franco-ottomanes, l'avènement du sultan Abdülaziz, ses réformes, son voyage en France, sa rencontre avec l'Impératrice Eugénie, sa mort suspecte. Ce roman, écrit en 1879, par une Française ayant vécu à Istanbul dans les proches du palais, offre un récit palpitant mais aussi une vision orientaliste de la femme ottomane, à travers l'imagination débridée de la romancière. Un chef-d'ouvre de la littérature de harem.
