The Turkish Slave or The Dumb Dwarf of Constantinople is a novel set in the Eastern world, written by Maturin Murray Ballou in 1863. The story revolves around the life of a young girl named Zuleika, who is captured and sold into slavery in Constantinople. Zuleika is bought by a wealthy Turkish merchant, who takes her as his concubine. However, she soon finds herself caught in a web of intrigue and betrayal, as she becomes embroiled in the politics of the Ottoman court. Along the way, she meets a mute dwarf named Mustapha, who becomes her loyal companion and helps her navigate the treacherous waters of the Ottoman court. The novel is a tale of love, loyalty, and adventure, set against the exotic backdrop of the Eastern world. It provides a fascinating glimpse into the customs and traditions of the Ottoman Empire, and explores the themes of slavery, freedom, and the human spirit. Overall, The Turkish Slave or The Dumb Dwarf of Constantinople is a compelling and entertaining read, full of drama, romance, and adventure.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
