Beskrivelse af The House Of The Falcon (1921)
The House Of The Falcon is a novel written by Harold Lamb, first published in 1921. The story is set in the 16th century, during the time of the Ottoman Empire's expansion into Europe. The main character is a young Venetian nobleman named Andrea Orsini, who is sent on a mission to Constantinople to retrieve a valuable relic from the Ottoman Sultan. Along the way, he falls in love with a beautiful Turkish princess named Fatima, who is also sought after by the Sultan's son, Prince Selim. The novel is filled with adventure, romance, and political intrigue, as Andrea navigates the dangerous world of Ottoman politics and tries to protect both the relic and Fatima from harm. The House Of The Falcon provides a vivid portrayal of life in the Ottoman Empire, with detailed descriptions of the architecture, clothing, and customs of the time. The novel also explores themes of loyalty, honor, and cultural differences, as Andrea grapples with his own identity and allegiances in a world where alliances are constantly shifting.
