Title
Afghan Tales of Wisdom in Folly: A Book of Afghan Humor Based on Mullah Nasruddin Stories - Paperback
by Joan Kayeum (Author)
In Tales of Wisdom in Folly, a charming collection of Mullah Nasruddin stories, Joan Kayeum captures the essence of Afghan humor. These are stories about a comical folk character who is known for his foolishness while being wise and for his wisdom while being foolish. Afghans everywhere, young and old, khans or peasants can recite his stories and love him for the joy and humor he brings to their lives. In Tales of Wisdom in Folly, Mullah travels with his donkey through nine provinces while the author relates thirty of his funniest stories and includes color photographs of Afghanistan's most famous sites. Nobody knows for certain where his stories originated or even if they are all true, but there is general agreement that they are six hundred years old and people throughout Afghanistan, Turkey and Central Asia have been laughing with him or at him ever since. All net proceeds from book sales will be donated to Joan Kayeum's Foundation for the Educational Development of Afghans in Afghanistan (FEDAA.org) whose vision is that every Afghan be educated to thrive, inspire, and unite.
