Vindication exhibits major fortunes that are lost and lives full of misery side by side, and as Muammer Sacit decides to take his revenge, the work turns into a novel of convoluted schemes. When characters such as Şaika, Rukiye, Melike, and Margarita also get involved, a series of intricate and intriguing events are set in motion.

For the first time in 92 years, Mahmut Yesari’s novel which was originally published in 1928 in the newspaper Milliyet episodic form is now available to contemporary readers.
