A Hundred and One Nights - (Library of Arabic Literature) (Paperback)

A Hundred and One Nights is a marvelous collection of Arabic tales of enchantment and wonder, translated into English for the very first time.

This vibrant translation promises to transport readers into its fantastical realms of magic and wonder, featuring an almost entirely different set of stories than its more famous sibling, Thousand and One Nights.

With a focus on human strength and ingenuity against a backdrop of inexorable, inscrutable fate, these tales draw on motifs and story elements that circulated across cultures, including Indian and Chinese antecedents.

The frame story possibly older than its more famous sibling is central to Fudge's translation of A Hundred and One Nights into English, ensuring accessibility for new and veteran readers alike.

This English-only edition is a must-read for anyone looking to explore the rich tradition of popular Arabic storytelling.
