Mahfouz is another of my favourite authors and his Cairo Trilogy one of my favourite reads. Arabian Nights and Days is a departure in that it is set in a medieval eastern land and retells some of the stories from the One Thousand and One Nights. Shahrzad, the Sultan, Sinbad, Aladdin, good and evil genies, a wise enigmatic Sufi master, schemers and thieves are all part of the bustling scene as one tale flows into the other.
