The Secrets of Scheherazade - Hardcover

by The Scheherazade Foundation (Editor)

A treasury of dazzling delight, The Secrets of Scheherazade transports the reader on a journey through a realm inspired by A Thousand and One Nights. Assembled as a collection to be auctioned along with certain objects, the stories contained within have magical powers...

At The Scheherazade Foundation, we believe that folklore and storytelling hold an unrivalled value within society. A repository compiled over millennia, folktales reflect every facet of the human experience, making us who we are. An ultimate bridge between cultures, stories have the ability to divert the mind, so that an essence of real value can be passed on. This collection includes an array of fabulous tales, such as 'The Wondrous Seed', 'The Happiest Man in the World', 'The Berber Queen and the Necklace of Fortune', and 'Only the Painting Knows the Whole Story'. The more we tell and retell folktales, the more they seep into our subconscious, becoming part of us. With each telling, their magic is passed on - enabling us to tap into an ancient matrix of ideas, solutions, and information.
