Durant la révolte crétoise de 1897-1898, une flotte européenne (France, Royaume-Uni, Russie, Allemagne, Italie et Autriche-Hongrie) intervient et occupe les ports de l'île. À La Canée, Rosa Bonaparte, venue de Marseille avec douze prostituées, installe un bordel dans une aile désaffectée de la mairie. Le lieu devient rapidement le centre de tous les trafics et de toutes les manigances politiques. Tous les personnages, clients et prostituées, sont caricaturaux car ils incarnent des archétypes. S'ils sont inventés, le reste : flottes occidentales, bordel, etc. est historiquement vrai.
