«De parte de la princesa muerta» is a contemporary novel by Kenizé Mourad, published by Espasa in paperback (560 pages, in Spanish).
In 1918, Princess Selma is seven years old and watches her world crumble at the court of the last Ottoman sultan. Exiled with her family, her path takes her from Lebanon to India and Paris, where she finds the love of her life and loses him forever. The author thus narrates the story of her own mother.
