The Secrets of the Harem is an anonymous insider view on historical Turkish harems. Excerpt: "Many people have an idea that Turkish women absolutely do nothing that is either useful or ornamental aside from the decoration of their own persons, but that is not altogether true, as my residence of over a year in their country taught me, for they are really dextrous with the needle and do work which is as fine as that done by the sisters in the convents, or that of the wives of the feudal noblemen of olden times. The favorite pastime of the Turkish women is the bath, which brings together the wives and slaves of all the well-to-do Turks, and it is like a picnic of school children. These wives, most of them very young—some, indeed, not over twelve or fourteen years old—take their lunch along, and they eat and steam, plunge and splash, and play pranks upon each other in the wildest glee the whole day long. No fear of an angry husband haunts their minds, for they are not expected to do anything, and their husbands very rarely enter the harems before six o'clock. By this time they are all back, rosy and sweet from their bath."

"This all-color book describes the Turkish harem in a comprehensive manner, bringing it to life with sensual, evocative illustrations and well-documented text." "The author describes the reigns and idiosyncracies of the Sultans and their favorites and brilliantly traces the decline of a once mighty empire grown soft from the corruption of absolute power, the influence of Europe, and above all, the usurpation of control by the very women who were supposed to live in complete subjugation to their lords and masters." "Illustrated by documents of the period, old and new photographs, and masterpieces by Renoir, Delacroix, Matisse, and Ingres among others, this revelation of a lost way of life will enchant anybody whose imagination has been inflamed by tales of a thousand and one nights."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Suleyman the Magnificent, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, has a harem of three hundred beautiful concubines. His soul and eyes desire only one; the one who makes him a poet. Only one makes him long for her every touch. What is her aphrodisiac? Roxelana, known as Hurrem-The Cheerful One in the harem has a brilliant mind within her irresistible body. She holds a 75 year old secret that could sow seeds of destruction in the Ottoman Sultanate; a secret granted her by none other than the Sultan's own mother. What is this secret curse? What power does Roxelana wield over Suleyman that he would break tradition and make her queen? Is it simply love or something more that tempts the Sultan? Why does she learn the ancient art of Kama Sutra from an Indian princess in the harem and then send Suleyman to war? And why would the Sultan's mother entrust the great secret to a mere harem girl? Rich with eroticism of the harem and the twisting, intrigues of the empire ruled from Topkapi palace, Harem Secrets creates embroidery of compelling plots since the fall of Constantinople. At the height of power, two figures change world history in Europe and Asia; history that was later influenced through a legendary harem dancer, Anarkali of Ottoman origins. Her mystery continues into the Palaces of Mogul emperors.
