The Arabian Nights

I read it in my childhood. The magic it brought to my world with its universe full of mistery, intrigue and heart shattering events, has no equal. Djinns, princesses, kings, palaces ... Maybe it only happened to me. At that time I read it in Spanish anyway. And I have read it in English too after that, it is just not the same. In any case, the story is worth it.

I must admit this was a bit of a slog in the middle part. Many aspects of the stories are somewhat repetitive, and there's only so much heterosexual longing a person can take (there's one story where literally the only things that happen are: man and woman see each other and fall instantly in love, man and woman hang out together twice, man and woman die of love because they can't be together). It picks up toward the end though.
