One Thousand and One Nights 4-Volume

"I go back to the couch and the reading room where I sink into the world of One Thousand and One Nights. Slowly, the real world evaporates like the slow ending of a movie. It's my favorite feeling in the world."
-Haruki Murakami-

In one of his texts, Baron von Hammer-Purgstall speaks of confabulatores nocturni, "men who tell stories at night." Then, as mentioned for the first time in an old Persian manuscript, it says that Alexander the Great, who was suffering from insomnia, gathered these people around him. IX. If we accept that it is the oldest of the Syrian manuscripts dating back to the 10th century, One Thousand and One Nights has been in the collective memory of humanity for more than 1000 years. It has a huge fan base that has grown like an avalanche since 1706, when it was first translated into Western languages: Henry Fielding, Walter Scott, Thackeray, Wilkie Collins, Goethe, Stendhal, Dumas, Flaubert, Pushkin, Tolstoy, Hofmannsthal, Conan Doyle, Wells, Yeats, Cavafy, Lovecraft, Proust, Perec, Rushdie, Calvino, Mahfuz and of course Borges.
