Roman Tursko ogledalo vodi nas na uzbudljivo putovanje u daleki XVI vek, kada je Ma?arska tek postala vazalna dr?ava turskog sultana Sulejmana Veli?anstvenog, nestabilna grani?na oblast izme?u dva velika carstva, ?ivopisna me?avina kalendara, poreskih sistema, jezika, knjiga i svetih spisa, mesto gde ?emo sresti mo?ne sultane, ma?arsko plemstvo i otomanske begove, trgovce, gradske bogata?e, seoske slu?benike – a ponekad ?ak i an?ele, d?ine i neverovatne lete?e ma?ine. Radnja se de?ava od Istanbula, preko Jedrena, Ni?a, Beograda i Petrovaradina, pa sve do Pe?uja, i sva ta mesta vi?e li?e na ona iz 1001 no?i gde kamile ?etaju gradskim ulicama, kajsije i urme obilato?krase drve?e, lopovi tumaraju ?umama, dok polako ni?u prve d?amije i turska kupatila. I zaista, ?arm Turskog ogledala le?i u neobuzdanom nagonu da se ispri?a pri?a, a njegova originalnost u prikazu Ma?arske kroz?vizuru otomanskih Turaka, zbog ?ega ?e sve do sada poznato ?itaocu?odjednom postati novo, strano i zanimljivo. Prevod s ma?arskog: Marija Cindori ?inkovi?
