About this listen

Dive into the mesmerizing world of A Thousand Nights and a Night, a captivating anthology that has evolved over centuries, woven together by the imaginations of countless authors, translators, and scholars. This rich tapestry of mythology and folklore hails from the Indian subcontinent, Persia, and Arabia, with its origins believed to date back to between AD 800-900. At the heart of these tales is the clever Shahrazad, who spins cliff-hanging stories to captivate her husband, Shahryar, and stave off her execution. Among the beloved tales you’ll discover are the adventures of Ali Baba and the legendary voyages of Sinbad the Sailor. This edition features the sixth of sixteen volumes translated by the renowned Richard Francis Burton. (Summary adapted from Wikipedia)
