Title: Nights in Daylight!
Review: There is a very long tradition of translating the Arabian Nights into stilted and artificial English. Husain Haddawy has chosen to use an airy conversational language, which is (I suspect) much closer to how the Nights would have sounded to the contemporary listener. It's a pleasure to read, the more so because of the quality and care taken with the physical book itself. I'm used to Everyman's Library books as being well printed and in easily read and nice-looking fonts. This is another one. A useful introduction is included.Joel Shimberg
