Aziyadé by Pierre Loti
"Aziyadé" by Pierre Loti is a novel published anonymously in 1879. Set in exotic Turkey during 1876-1877, it tells the passionate love story between a European naval officer and a young woman trapped in an elderly man's harem. Their forbidden romance unfolds across Salonica and Istanbul, leading to profound consequences when duty forces them apart. Blending intimate diary entries with correspondence, Loti crafts a tragic tale of impossible love against an orientalist
backdrop, exploring the depths of devotion and sacrifice. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
