About this ebook
Heir to the wise Daniel, Hsib is a young woodcutter promised to a great future. When his greedy companions abandon him in the middle of the forest, he meets the Queen of Serpents. She then tells her story, a fabulous adventure filled with gods and demons, princes and prophets. From Kabul to Cairo, journeys intertwine with intrigues and spiritual quests while the fabulous nights follow one another. An enchanting and intricately designed interpretation of the story of Hsib Karm ad-Dm, through which David B. opens for us the gates of the Thousand and One Nights. For mature readers.
