Soft cover. Zustand: Very Good. Paperback. Pbo. Cr. 8vo. (19 x 13 cm). In English. 222 p. B/w ills. 'The Ottomans developed a highly organized society with many traditions. However, the writing and publicising of 'memoirs' was not one of them. Even the most illustrious Grand Vizier did not avail his personal diary to others for perusal (even if he ever did put them in black on white). This is what makes Leya (Saz) Hanimefendi's book rather unique. She was taken into the 'Harem' of Sultan Abdulmecid at the age of four and lefty Çiragan palace only to be married. She is the only woman who wrote (or rather dictated to her son) her actual experiences of life at the Çiragan Palace where Sultan Abdulmecid reigned. Her references to many incidents, from the utensils used to the Ladies' Orchestra make this book interesting both to the layman and to the historian. Her great sense of propriety and admiration for the way of life she enjoyed at the palace (despite the vigorous discipline) is another factor that makes reading these memoirs a jotfull experience'.
