A Thousand and One Nights

"A Thousand and One Nights," also known as "Arabian Nights," is a collection of Middle Eastern folk tales compiled during the Islamic Golden Age. The stories feature a frame narrative: Scheherazade, a clever woman, tells captivating tales to her husband, King Shahryar, to postpone her execution. Each night, she leaves an ending unresolved, compelling the king to spare her life for another story. This collection includes famous tales such as "Aladdin," "Ali Baba," and "Sinbad the Sailor," weaving themes of adventure, love, and moral lessons, while also reflecting cultural values and the power of storytelling.
