In this episode of Codex, we'll take you to the period between the proclamation of the Second Constitutional Era and the 31 March Uprising, and tell you how an idealistic young member of the Committee of Union and Progress was led to disaster by an intriguing and manipulative Istanbul family.

Nahid Sırrı Örik's masterpiece might be titled "While Sultan Hamid Falls," but the real tragedy is Şefik's fall at the hands of Nimet. This story of his fall tells us a great deal about human nature, Ottoman political culture, and the traps facing the Committee of Union and Progress.

Don't miss it!
