I've also read about a third of it. I actually liked the preface or at least didn't find anything wrong with it. The author quite boldly tolds the reader that this is not only a book of historical fiction but a political parabel - so maybe we don't only have to look at the history of Italy and the Otoman Empire but at the (then) present of Turkey.
Off-topic and not important for the value of the book (but at the moment the story is very slow going):
What I asked myself is if I would really recognise it when someone else looks exactly like me.
