returned to Koycegiz in 1992, after thirty years, to find her family home in perilous disrepair. Just a
handful of people remained in the ancestral village. She set about putting house and estate in order and

creations. | |

ODE
TO A SULTAN By Emre Araci | 
| When Sultan Abdulaziz embarked on his unprecedented state tour of Europe in 1867, no expense
was spared in making him welcome. What most impressed him, it seems, were the musical extravaganzas: visits
to the opera, glittering concerts and massed choirs trained to sing his praises in Turkish. | |

BRAVE OLD WORLD By William Gurney | 
| The sad, heroic history of Gallipoli is written in every gully and ridge of the
beautiful peninsula. William Gurney combs the battleground for clues | |
