embarrassing situations than one
could have thought possible. He
thinks he doesn't like it-but when
the little nuisance goes away for a

realization that he loves Carlotta, a
decision intensified when the master
of the Turkish harem comes to Lon

But the path towards the culmi
nation of his romance is anything but
smooth, a fact that provides many
unexpected dramatic features to this
popular, human and entertaining
story.
