The Sycophant Lady - Mahmudiye Trilogy 3

The character of the flattery writer, who set out to research flattery in the human soul, whom she happened to know from the past, who used to nod her head saying "Oh sir, basket sir" and thank God for everything among the families of Istanbul, true to her name, the Flatterer Lady, joins Turkish literature as a novel character that has never been encountered before, with an identity as close as witchcraft.

The Flatterer Lady, who continues the magical festival known as Walpurgisnacht - Witches' Night from the Middle Ages, alone and at her own will in Istanbul, but then sows discord among the beautiful people who wear talismans, pray, curse, and have fun with it, eventually ends up in the Mahmudiye Village of Biga; this is her fate!

In a time when the palace aristocracy has been replaced by the uncouth, even worse, uncultured but wealthy bourgeois, the Sycophant approaches a wealthy family who will continue his business, which is a market of the old times; the period is the years of multi-party life in Turkey, adorned with new American habits. Dante's line in the Divine Comedy, "Lascinte ognisprenza,"

"Abandon all hope," applies to everyone who encounters the Sycophant Lady. Moreover, the mysterious life of Miss Sycophant, her state of mind woven with her physical flaws, the various secrets of the family she is assigned to flatter, and her past and present make this a multi-layered, rich novel...
