Description

The wise fool of Oriental folklore has been a universal figure for centuries. His back-to-front brand of genius is admired across cultures and continents, with tales of his wisdom and foolishness told in caravanserais, teahouses, cafés, and homes around the world. Tahir Shah's Travels With Nasrudin offers a unique perspective on human culture through the eyes of this enigmatic figure. The book is an exploration of the world through a keyhole that turns our understanding on its head. As you read, the stories will challenge your perceptions and make you laugh at the off-beat humour. By sharing his own experiences with Nasrudin's wisdom, Shah reveals new dimensions to the world and offers a remarkable work of self-examination.
