Editor's Note:
Per dieci secoli Costantinopoli è stata l'altra Roma. Poi, in una giornata di primavera del 1453, tutto è cambiato. Roma s'inabissava, nasceva Istanbul. Una città eterna, prodigiosa, inquieta. Un luogo del mondo dove è possibile incrociare le storie di imperatrici belle e crudeli, di sultani folli e saggi, di schiave e avventurieri. Storie piccole e grandissime ritrovate e raccontate da un autore capace, come raramente accade, di fondere in un unico sguardo sapere e meraviglia.«Il modo migliore per arrivare a Istanbul sarebbe attraversando lentamente il Mar di Marmara fino a veder apparire une incomparable silhouette de ville...». Questo libro è il racconto, potremmo forse dire il romanzo di Istanbul. Protagonista è una città eterna, prodigiosa, una città incarnata nelle sue stesse rovine. A comporne la trama sono le storie degli uomini e delle donne che l'hanno fondata, vissuta, abbandonata: storie piccole e insieme grandissime; a tenerle insieme sono le parole di un autore capace, come raramente accade, di fondere in un unico sguardo sapere e meraviglia. Per secoli Bisanzio, Costantinopoli, Istanbul, è stata una meta ricercata, talvolta fraintesa, altre volte amata, sempre guardata con stupore già dalla prima apparizione del suo straordinario profilo contro il cielo d'Oriente. Quel crescente di luna, che non a caso figura sulla bandiera della Repubblica turca, è - e insieme non è - la stessa luna che possiamo vedere in un qualunque cielo notturno europeo. Come il particolare profumo della città, i suoni, i richiami dei marinai, le luci riflesse sono - e non sono - le stesse di un porto del nostro continente. A renderli diversi è quella sensazione indefinita, quel contorno avvolgente, che una volta si chiamava «esotismo» e che ancora sopravvive. Senza sottrarsi al fascino di quell'esotismo, Augias ne solleva con garbo il velo per scoprire la sostanza più autentica della città, quella che il turista non sempre può o sa cogliere. E lo fa esplorando, indagando e raccontando le storie, i luoghi, le leggende della città. Storie di imperatrici bellissime e crudeli, di sultani capaci di molta saggezza e di altrettanta follia, di avventurieri, di sognatori, di schiave che diventano regine. Storie che restituiscono significato a spazi apparentemente vuoti, che cuciono insieme eventi lontanissimi nel tempo e nella geografia: Istanbul, Roma, Parigi. Ma la capacità seduttiva di Istanbul non dipende solo dalle tracce del suo passato: ha anche molto a che fare con il suo caos, la sporcizia, il fumo, le crepe, i detriti. Con la scelta, continuamente rimandata, di una vera, definitiva appartenenza. Di questa città inquieta - uno dei non molti posti che hanno contribuito a dare al mondo un destino -, Augias ci racconta il grande passato e l'enigmatico presente, trasmettendo al lettore quel senso di incantamento che ha caratterizzato il suo primo incontro con la città e che si è rinnovato a ogni visita successiva. I segreti di Istanbul è anche questo: la storia di un innamoramento improvviso e di una continua stupefatta scoperta.
