About this product
Product Information
At midnight, December 31, 1925, citizens of the newlyproclaimed Turkish Republic celebrated the New Year. For the first time ever,they had agreed to use a nationally unified calendar and clock. Yet in Istanbul--an ancient crossroads and Turkey's largestcity--people were looking toward an uncertain future. Never purely Turkish,Istanbul was home to generations of Greeks, Armenians, and Jews, as well asMuslims. It welcomed White Russian nobles ousted by the Russian Revolution,Bolshevik assassins on the trail of the exiled Leon Trotsky, German professors,British diplomats, and American entrepreneurs--a multicultural panoply ofperformers and poets, do-gooders and ne'er-do-wells. During the Second WorldWar, thousands of Jews fleeing occupied Europe found passage through Istanbul,some with the help of the future Pope John XXIII. At the Pera Palace, Istanbul'smost luxurious hotel, so many spies mingled in the lobby that the managerposted a sign asking them to relinquish their seats to paying guests. With beguiling prose and rich character portraits, CharlesKing brings to life a remarkable era when a storied city stumbled into themodern world and reshaped the meaning of cosmopolitanism.
