The Exploits of the Incomparable Mulla Nasrudin
Collected stories about a popular figure in the folklore of many Asian and European countries.
The World of Nasrudin
Stories of Mulla Nasrudin appear in oral traditions and literature from the Middle East to Greece, Russia to China. Many nations claim Nasrudin as a native son, but nobody really knows who he was or where he came from. Whether the stories are studied for their humour or hidden wisdom, they help us understand our world and ourselves.
Pleasantries of the Incredible Mulla Nasrudin
The appeal of Nasrudin is as universal and timeless as the truths he illustrates. His stories are read by children, by scientists and scholars, and by followers of philosophy. Idries Shah assembled this collection of Nasrudin's trials and tribulations from ancient manuscripts and oral literature, from sources in North Africa and Turkey, the Middle East and Central Asia. Many were known to the great Sufi masters, Rumi, Jami, and Attar the chemist.
Subtleties of the Inimitable Mulla Nasrudin
Many countries claim Nasrudin as a native, although few have gone so far as Turkey in exhibiting a 'grave' of the wisest fool who ever lived, and holding an annual Nasrudin Festival. He is the greatest, most intriguing, character of folklore found in any Eastern land. Versions of his back-to-front thinking can be found in Morocco, Egypt and Russia, in Turkey, Greece, Albania and Afghanistan. Since Idries Shah made Nasrudin's genius available to mainstream Western readers three decades ago, people from every walk of life have laughed at and learned from the wise fool's inimitable escapades.
The Pleasantries of the Incredible Mulla Nasrudin
Here, Nasrudin's anecdotes are seen to be parallel to the mind's working, designed to amuse the tea-house, but also intended for use on other levels.
New Tales of Nasrudin
Tales of the Mullah Nasrudin have entertained readers from diverse cultures throughout history. His antics embody the most common human foibles and offer opportunities for insights into the Divine Mysteries. These New Tales of Nasrudin are offered as a supplement to that tradition and are sure to elicit a chuckle, some head scratching, or an "Aha!", perhaps all at the same time. They should be read a few at a time, so as to savor their inner meaning. Also available from Eric K. Sorensen: ECLECTICUTION, a musical compact disk of original music in styles from folk to Chinese classical to reggae to jazz.
