(Arthur Ignatius) Keller, A.I. The Moonlit Way: A Novel E-text prepared by Katherine Ward, Darleen Dove, Roger Frank, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "The Moonlit Way: A Novel" by Robert W. Chambers is a fictional narrative written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in an enchanting, moonlit setting, primarily in Constantinople, where intrigues of European nobility and a captivating dancer named Nihla Quellen intertwine with themes of love, betrayal, and ambition. The plot hints at layers of complex relationships against a backdrop of rising political tensions and the glamour of the East. At the start of the novel, the atmosphere is rich with vivid imagery of the moonlit Bosphorus, inviting the reader into the opulence of a gathering at the German Embassy, where various characters discuss their fascination with Nihla, a beautiful dancer who has just made a striking entrance. Set among a cast of diplomats and socialites, we are introduced to Count d’Eblis, who is eager to make Nihla the center of attention while Ferez Bey, an influential figure, schemes behind the scenes. As the prologue unfolds, Nihla is revealed as not just an alluring performer but also a pawn in a complex game of power and desire, setting the stage for her dramatic entanglements that echo themes of fate and the quests for personal gain.
