Seller's Description:
New York. 1986. Morrow. 1st Printing. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0688043348. 429 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Vittoria Semproni. Jacket painting: Ingres, Jean Auguste Dominique, Odalisque with the Slave, 1840. keywords: Literature Black America Women. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Barbara Chase-Riboud has taken the story of an American Creole captured and sold into the harem of Topkapi during the reign of the Ottoman Sultan Abdulhamid I (1774-1789), and through meticulous research has shorn the facts of romantic and historical misconceptions to create a new and riveting portrait of the mother of Sultan Mahmud II (1808-1839). Her harem name, Naksh-i-dil, is the only name to have come down to us. In this mysterious American who became the Empress Queen Mother, or Valide, of the Ottoman Empire, and who converted to the Islamic religion of her subjects. Barbara Chase-Riboud has created another haunting, unyielding survivor of slavery: a woman equal in power to the archenemy of her Sultan and her Empire, Catherine the Great of Russia. Naksh-i-dil's era spans fifty years of opulent harem life, four Sultans, two wars, and Napoleon's disastrous Russian Campaign in which Mahmud Il plays a surprising and fascinating role. The reader is swept from Istanbul to the court of St. Petersburg, from Versailles to the shores of Tripoli and the steppes of the Crimea. This brilliant and ambitious novel of love and slavery has the harem as its centerpiece: a miniature nation of locked-up women owned by the Sultan, governed by a set of rules and regulations as strict as a convent, and ruled by the Black Eunuch, one of Barbara Chase-Riboud's most unforgettable characters. Though a novel, Valide has the power of truth. The Empress Naksh-i-dil's Western name is lost to history, but her will to power and survival, her captivity, enslavement, exaltation, and final tragedy are historic. inventory #28767.
