Happiness must be earned.
And that, in a nutshell, sums up this magnificent collection of Arabian and Persian folk tales from the great explorer, translator, and risk-taker, Sir Richard Francis Burton. The supreme badass of the Victorian Age.
As a reader, I am lucky enough to own the scarlet leather bound edition, which proudly maintains its hierarchical spot on the tallest bookshelf.
