In the Western imagination, the Middle Eastern harem was a place of sex, debauchery, slavery, miscegenation, power, riches, and sheer abandon. This book offers a glimpse into the lives of Muslim palace women of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It explains the social structure of the nineteenth-century Ottoman palace harem.
