Shahrazad's silence

55

Product description

In this historical novel, we embark on a journey to the corners of the ancient city of "Izmir" or "Smyrna," that city where Turks, Greeks, and Europeans lived side by side before being torn apart by World War I, the Greek-Turkish war, and the great "Izmir" fire that engulfed the entire city in 1922. Doors open before us to a forgotten world full of love, pain, and sacrifices, through following three women: "Eidith," daughter of the wealthy French "Lamarck" family, "Panayiota," daughter of the Greek grocer "Akis" family, and "Shahrazad," the silent woman living under the care of a Turkish family. The threads of the stories of the three women intertwine, revealing their shared fate, in an exciting story where the destinies of families from Greece, Turkey, Armenians, and Sham (Levant) are intertwined over a century. 600 pages
