Every night for three years the vengeful King Shahriyar sleeps with
a different virgin, executing her next morning. To end this brutal
pattern and to save her own life, the vizier's daughter, Shahrazad,
begins to tell the king tales of adventure, love, riches and wonder
- tales of mystical lands peopled with princes and hunchbacks, the
Angel of Death and magical spirits, tales of the voyages of
Sindbad, of Ali Baba's outwitting a band of forty thieves and of
jinnis trapped in rings and in lamps. The sequence of stories will
last 1,001 nights.
