The Wise Fool: Fables from the Islamic World is a collection of Mulla Nasruddin tales, which are famous folktales that have been shared for centuries throughout Pakistan and the Arab Middle East to Turkey, Afghanistan, Iran, Bulgaria and parts of Russia. The tales are based on Nasruddin, a simple wise man, sometimes rich, sometimes poor, who offers moments of wisdom and humor in everyday moral scenarios. People want his guidance on what is right, or how they should behave, but he offers solutions in parables that leave people chuckling knowing that he does not take life or himself too seriously. He’s a lovable character, humble and preoccupied with the present, he changes over time and can always teach life’s lessons and the way to follow, to those willing to listen. The reader will learn a great deal about the different Asian and Indian cultures when reading this collection. Also the stories about the Mulla Nasruddin always have an important meaning in the end. Specifically in the opening tale of "The Price of Steam," the take away is to not take advantage of others, and always do trades or transaction fairly. Do not take advantage of someone else. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
