The Arabian Nights: Tales from a Thousand and One Nights by Anonymous
3.0
Arabian Nights might be one of the books you should read before you die. It definitly counts as a classic story and has been published as such. The stories are interesting, mysthical and very catching.
Unfortunately I find myself a little disappointed, that the Penguin Classics Release only published a selection of all the stories. I might have to find myself a copy that has more stories in it.
Having now finished the whole book I have to add that some of the stories are really long-winded and hard to "read" - not in terms of difficulty, but because of boredom. I'm still glad I finished it. I especially enjoyed the Mermaid and her son story.
