"L'homme qui assassina: Roman" by Claude Farrère is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is set against the backdrop of Istanbul and follows Colonel Renaud de Sévigné Montmoron, a French military attaché, as he navigates the complexities of diplomatic life while encountering local figures such as Mehmed Djaleddin Pacha. The novel captures themes of culture clash, the decay of the Ottoman Empire, and personal reflection through the eyes of its well-connected protagonist. The opening of the novel introduces us to Colonel Renaud de Sévigné Montmoron on August 13 of an unspecified year, reflecting on his recent presentation to Sultan in Istanbul. He recalls the mundane ceremony, contrasting it with a memorable encounter with Mehmed Pacha, who reminds him of an event from a dozen years prior that involved saving his life. The atmosphere is rich with observations about the diplomatic sphere and the cultural differences between the Turkish and European societies. Through engaging descriptions of the Turkish military and social dynamics, readers gain insight into the colonel's perspective on both his own declining sense of youthful vigor and the larger societal changes occurring in the Ottoman Empire.
