"Fantôme d'Orient" by Pierre Loti is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a protagonist who is poised on the brink of an emotional journey back to the evocative city of Constantinople, haunted by memories of love and loss from his past. He is driven by a desire to reconnect with a significant figure from his history, which adds a layer of melancholic nostalgia to the narrative. At the start of the novel, the main character reflects on his impending journey and grapples with feelings of anxiety as he prepares for a departure that is tinged with memories of a past love. He recalls the time spent in Istanbul, mingling personal memories with reflections on the passage of time and the shadows of his former life. This sense of longing is intensified by his memories of a Circassian girl and the bonds he formed while living there. As he anticipates his reunion with the city, he oscillates between hope and despair, contemplating the possibility of finding the girl he once loved, all while recognizing the inexorable changes that time has wrought upon both the city and himself.
