Reseña del libro "Extraordinary Adventures of Mullah Nasruddin (en Inglés)"
Extraordinary Adventures of Mullah Nasruddin : Naughty, unexpurgated tales of the beloved wise fool from the Middle & Far East Revised Edition ~ collected & retold by Ron J. Suresha ~ Lambda Literary Awards, Finalist ~ Rainbow Book Awards, Honorable Mention This thoroughly revised edition of the award-winning folklore collection detailing the exploits of the beloved 800-year-old Turkish “wise fool,” Mullah Nasruddin (Nasreddin Hoca), presents 255 authentic, hilarious, outrageous folk tales, dozens appearing in English for the first time. Author Suresha has done extensive research to locate, translate, and retell these centuries-old “naughty Nasruddin” stories from around the globe. Some are relatively simple, straightforward “traditional” anecdotes and jokes that depict the Mullah as he daily interacts with his family, neighbors, donkey, community, and strangers during his myriad journeys in the ancient hills and rural villages of the Levant. Many bawdy, ribald tales, previously suppressed for moralistic reasons, explore taboo themes inappropriate for children. Mature readers will be amused and amazed by this unadulterated account of the truly Extraordinary Adventures of Mullah Nasruddin.
