The book offers a new perspective on one of the key historical processes of the twentieth century — the collapse of the Ottoman Empire. It is not just a book about the past — it is a study of how modern nations are being built, how a historic change in everyday life is taking place, and why the cultural codes of the Ottoman Empire continue to affect the region even a century after its disappearance.
