The Il-khan’s Wife and The Tiger and the Cauldron, even if they relate in parts to the lives of real historical figures, were never intended to be anything other than just stories.

These are just some of the essays I have written on the background to the novels and the period in which they are set. Eventually, they will be collected, edited and published together as an e-book.
Meantime, you can read six of the chapters by clicking on the links below.
