"Duizend en één Nacht. Arabische vertellingen. Eerste deel" by Anonymous is a collection of ancient Middle Eastern and South Asian folktales, believed to have been compiled in a time period likely spanning from the early 9th to the 14th century. It encompasses a rich tapestry of narratives that primarily follows the story of Scheherazade, who, to save herself from execution, tells her husband, King Schahriar, captivating stories that keep him enthralled and postpone her fate. The tales include themes of love, betrayal, and treachery woven with elements of the supernatural. At the start of the collection, we are introduced to the backstory of the two royal brothers—Sultan Schahriar and his brother, Schahzenan. Following the revelation of infidelity by their wives, both brothers find themselves engulfed in betrayal and sorrow. As they embark on a journey filled with despair, they encounter a powerful spirit and witness the unfortunate occurrences that befall a merchant. The opening portions set the stage for the intertwining of personal turmoil and fantastical elements, leading to a sequence of stories that reveal not just the struggles of the characters but also a deeper discourse on themes of fidelity, justice, and retribution against the backdrop of a mesmerizing world of adventure.

Reading ease score: 72.3 (7th grade). Fairly easy to read.
