A colorful caravan of Eastern oral and written literature, this collection includes many best-known teaching stories of the dervish philosophers and mystics, writings by Idries Shah on Mecca and on Islam, poetry, proverbs, allegories, and symbolic tales of amazing richness and variety as The Story of Mushkil Gusha, The Magic Horse, and The Two Brothers.

The collection as a whole makes delightful reading, and at the same time brings the reader closer to the spiritual essence of the Middle East which is of overwhelming contemporary interest and value. A favorite gift book.
