Book excerpt: Set against the majestic backdrop of Imperial Istanbul in the aftermath of the First World War, A Farewell To Imperial Istanbul weaves a captivating tale of family, duty and the indomitable human spirit. İstanbul, 1922: As the Ottoman Empire crumbles in the wake of the Great War, the fate of the Imperial capital and the House of Osman hang in the balance. Emboldened by victory in the Turkish War of Independence, the Turkish Nationalist Government abolishes the Ottoman Sultanate, bringing an end to over six centuries of Ottoman rule. Although the Ottoman Caliphate endures for now, Istanbul is stripped of its Imperial mantle and mourns its lost glory. Amidst this tumultuous period, Prince Nihad navigates the shifting political landscape with deep concern for his nation and the future of the Imperial family. Meanwhile, his son, Prince Vâsıb, envisions a peaceful future following the Treaty of Lausanne and yearns to see his city liberated from foreign occupation. As the new Republic of Türkiye emerges from the ashes of the once-mighty Ottoman Empire, Istanbul and the Imperial family confront a pivotal moment in history, their destinies entwined with the dangerous tides of the Bosphorus. Surrounded by perilous currents that separate East and West, members of the Dynasty face challenges that test their resilience and unity as they chart a new and uncertain course. Journey back in time to witness the final days of Imperial Istanbul, and follow Prince Nihad and Prince Vâsıb as they grapple with personal aspirations, family loyalties, and the legacy of an Empire in transition. Experience history's unfolding drama through their eyes, exploring the profound impact of change and adversity on individuals in their quest for survival and meaning in a world entering a new era.
