From the acclaimed author of The Bastard of Istanbul, a colorful, magical tale set during the height of the Ottoman Empire

In her latest novel, Turkey's preeminent female writer spins an epic tale spanning nearly a century in the life of the Ottoman Empire. In 1540, twelve-year-old Jahan arrives in Istanbul. As an animal tamer in the sultan's menagerie, he looks after the exceptionally smart elephant Chota and befriends (and falls for) the sultan's beautiful daughter, Princess Mihrimah. A palace education leads Jahan to Mimar Sinan, the empire's chief architect, who takes Jahan under his wing as they construct (with Chota's help) some of the most magnificent buildings in history. Yet even as they build Sinan's triumphant masterpieces--the incredible Suleymaniye and Selimiye mosques--dangerous undercurrents begin to emerge, with jealousy erupting among Sinan's four apprentices.

A memorable story of artistic freedom, creativity, and the clash between science and fundamentalism, Shafak's intricate novel brims with vibrant characters, intriguing adventure, and the lavish backdrop of the Ottoman court, where love and loyalty are no match for raw power.

Great Denim jacket!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Tinted Light Wash
I purchased a 2xl for my husband and it's a great quality and price. He really loves it. It's a good stretch and he's able to place a hoodie or a thicker shirt and still be comfortable if need be. Will be purchasing him another color of this jeans jacket.

Good Value Denim Jacket With True to Size Fit
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
Great denim jacket for the price. It feels durable and well made, though the quality is not quite on par with higher end name brands, which is to be expected at this price point. The fit is true to size and matches expectations. It is comfortable out of the box and, like most denim, should become even more comfortable as it breaks in over time. The arm length runs slightly long, but if you usually find sleeves long on jackets, this one will fit similarly.

Great base to add patches to
Size: X-Large, Color: Black
I've bought this jacket twice now (lost the first one...). Great base for my DIY patch jackets. I buy an XL even though it's a size too large for me. It's a standard denim jacket, not much to write home about. Good pocket size, and I appreciate the functional chest pockets.
