"The author of this delightful book about life in Turkey before the emancipation of the country under Mustapha Kemal writes with intimate knowledge--for she was the daughter of Sir George Clifton of the Consular Service, who married Camilla Cumberbatch, daughter of the British Consul-General in Turkey. She had many friends among the Turks and gives intimate details of the life and customs of the country for which she has a great affection. On political affairs she writes with great knowledge and is frank in her comments on this country's relations with Turkey immediately before the 1914-18 War when, in her opinion, "unpardonable blunders" were committed by the British Government. The author met everyone of importance and interest in the Turkey of her time and has much to say about them: Mustapha Kemal, Pierre Loti, Lady Nicholson and her son Harold, an enfant terrible. An extremely entertaining book of reminiscences which is also an interesting contribution to the social and political history of Turkey."--Book jacket front flap.

Excerpt from Ayesha of the Bosphorus: A Romance of Constantinople They settled themselves comfortably around a small table, ordered coffee, and began to smoke Turkish cigarettes silently, in Oriental fashion. The coffee soon came. Under the spell of coffee, tobacco, and the scent of Wisteria blossoms roofing them in, dreamily viewing the fairy-like scene spread before them, they might have spent half the afternoon there, oblivious of the American College for Girls, of commencement, of the purpose of their trip for so the Orient brings Lotus-like forgetfulness upon one; but Prentice looked at his watch, began to grunt, and to fumble in his pocket for coins. Time to be going, he said, and beckoning the waiter, paid him. All got up slowly stretching themselves, shaking off the charming sense of infinite repose and lethargy which had settled on them - and began the further ascent to Scutari and to the American College. When they arrived all was bustle and excitement. The Montenegrin gate-keeper, dressed for the occasion in gorgeously gold braided costume, his belt stuck full of long, murderous-looking pistols and of Turkish daggers, admitted them, smiling.

Engin Inel Holmstroms second novel, House of Daughters, is a delightful adaptation of Jane Austens Pride and Prejudice to 1920s Turkey. The Ottoman Empire is dying. Istanbul is occupied by the British. But all Emin Efendi can think of is marrying off his five daughters to secure their places and fortunes. While working as a nurse, Emin Efendis favorite daughter Perihan meets a dashing, wounded Turkish officer, Major Murat. Theyre attracted to each other, but Murats pride in his familys social status prejudices their blossoming love. In this retelling, Jane Austens beloved characters are taken out of the drawing room and their tale is told within the historical context of the Turkish fight for independence, birth of its new nation, and greater opportunities for women. House of Daughters should appeal to Austens readers as well as all those who enjoy reading novels with strong female characters. HOUSE OF DAUGHTERS is a thrilling blend of adventure, romance, and the personal courage of men and women, during the birth of the Turkish Republic of the 1920s. Exploring the British and Turkish conflict in Anatolia and written like a romantic fable with a dark side, the novel tells of high romance, honor, betrayal, and family saga, in a beautiful mash-up of classic and modern literature. Taking its framing story from Jane Austens PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, Engin Inel Holmstrom has given Austens tale a modern twist with scenes of soccer matches, gun-running, cross-cultural secrets, and nationalistic fervor in a story of new beginnings, old traditions, and the rise of the new Turkish state. A sweet delight of hushed promises undermined by the demands of family, friends, country and gender, HOUSE OF DAUGHTERS is a hybrid story drawn through the eighteenth and twentieth centuries best understood in the twenty-first century. Following her debut novel LOVESWEPT, Holmstroms second novel uncovers a vital history of European struggle for identity, unity, and self-determination. A proud story of unchanging human desire, conflict, and fresh hope. Matt Fullerty, Author of THE KNIGHT OF NEW ORLEANS and THE MURDERESS AND THE HANGMAN
