Produktbeschreibung
This collection of Kurdish folk and fairy tales presents a quick glance at the Kurdish folklore that is essentially rich in stories and tales of kings, princes, shepherds, common folks, fairies, ogres, ogresses, and so on.

In addition to giving an account of a world in which anything can happen, the stories, basically, highlight such defining aspects of the Kurdish identity as courage, honesty, integrity, ingenuity, and above all, endurance.
