by Anonymous

"El libro de las mil noches y una noche; t. 1" by Anonymous is a collection of Middle Eastern folktales compiled during the Islamic Golden Age. A vengeful king executes each new bride at dawn—until Scheherazade volunteers herself and begins telling stories that end on cliffhangers, postponing her death night after night. The tales span historical accounts, love stories, tragedies, and adventures featuring jinn, sorcerers, and legendary places. For one thousand and one nights, she weaves narratives within narratives, blending fantasy with reality to save her life.
