A wonderful copy of Aladdin and Other Tales from the Thousand and One Nights, translated by N. J. Dawood. This a delightful collection of tales filled with magic, kings and jinnees that have entertained for hundreds of years and continue to be enjoyed for their imaginative richness to this day. The Tale of Judar and his Brothers has a wealthy merchant distribute his possessions equally among his wife and three sons, however the two elder brothers are jealous of the youngest for supposedly being the favourite. The Porter and the Three Girls of Baghdad follows a porter who is invited to stay the night in a lady’s home on the condition that he asks no questions and doesn’t speak of what doesn’t concern him. Aladdin and the Enchanted Lamp is a well-known classic in which the ne’er-do-well Aladdin is recruited to retrieve an oil lamp in a magic cave, double-crossed and trapped he finds help from an unlikely source. This vintage book would make a delightful addition to any library.
