"The Eye of Zeitoon" by Talbot Mundy is a historical novel probably written in the early 20th century. The story is set against a backdrop of political tension and cultural conflict in the Near East, particularly revolving around the rights and struggles of Armenians against Turkish oppression. The narrative introduces a cast of characters including Fred Oakes and his companions, who find themselves entangled in this complex web of intrigue and danger
as they prepare for a journey that promises adventure and peril. At the start of the book, the focus is on Fred Oakes, who is recovering from an illness in Tarsus, a city steeped in history. As he interacts with locals and other travelers, he becomes enveloped in the rich and often tumultuous history of the region. The opening further introduces the character of the "Eye of Zeitoon," an enigmatic Armenian leader, as well as hints at the impending turmoil facing the Armenian population. Through vivid descriptions of the setting and interactions with diverse characters—from gipsies to local Armenians and Turks—Mundy paints a picture of a land on the brink of conflict, setting the stage for an engaging tale that intertwines adventure with historical significance.
