一位自稱摩歌戴拉摩爾,亦即「愛之蒙兀兒」的歐洲金髮高挑年輕人,這天他帶著一則將令全帝都為之著迷的故事,造訪正宗阿克巴大帝朝廷。這位陌生人宣稱他乃大帝之祖,開國君王巴布爾失蹤么妹,「玄眼少女」卡拉科茲之子。相傳科茲面貌姣美善巫術,先遭烏茲別克昔班尼汗擄走,昔班尼兵敗後淪落至波斯王伊斯邁爾一世手上,最終成了隸屬奧圖曼蘇丹旗下、來自翡冷翠某位傭兵頭子阿加利亞的情人。當阿加利亞擁著這位蒙兀兒情人凱旋而歸時,翡冷翠居民無不為她出眾的美貌所傾倒。然而正當這位多舛女子試圖掌控自己命運時,東西兩個世界不經意地就在一個女人的手中化干戈為玉帛。
然而摩歌所言是否屬實?倘若為真,那失落的公主下落何方?反之,是否該將之處死?
A tall, yellow-haired young European traveller calling himself 'Mogor dell'Amore', the Mughal of Love, arrives at the court of the real Grand Mughal, the Emperor Akbar, with a tale to tell that begins to obsess the whole imperial capital. The stranger claims to be the child of a lost Mughal princess, the youngest sister of Akbar's grandfather Babur: Qara Köz, 'Lady Black Eyes', a great beauty believed to possess powers of enchantment and sorcery, who is taken captive first by an Uzbek warlord, then by the Shah of Persia, and finally becomes the lover of a certain Argalia, a Florentine soldier of fortune, commander of the armies of the Ottoman Sultan. When Argalia returns home with his Mughal mistress the city is mesmerized by her presence, as two worlds are brought together by one woman attempting to command her own destiny ...
But is Mogor's story true? And if so, then what happened to the lost princess? And if he's a liar, must he die?

Ahmed Salman Rushdie born 19 June 1947, is an Indian-born British-American novelist. His work often combines magic realism with historical fiction and primarily deals with connections, disruptions, and migrations between Eastern and Western civilizations, typically set on the Indian subcontinent. Rushdie's second novel, Midnight's Children (1981), won the Booker Prize in 1981 and was deemed to be "the best novel of all winners" on two occasions, marking the 25th and the 40th anniversary of the prize.
After his fourth novel, The Satanic Verses (1988), Rushdie became the subject of several assassination attempts and death threats, including a fatwa calling for his death issued by Ruhollah Khomeini, the supreme leader of Iran. Numerous killings and bombings have been carried out by extremists who cite the book as motivation, sparking a debate about censorship and religiously motivated violence. In 2022, a man stabbed Rushdie after rushing onto the stage where the novelist was scheduled to deliver a lecture at an event in Chautauqua, New York.
