I read this three book edition over the Christmas period two years ago. Took me the best part of a month to finish it. Completely astonishingly body of work, so many standout moments. The Byzantine Prince being captured by a Muslim Princesses, and the two falling in love. Absolutely epic. I need to revisit this book again soon.
I spent a very enjoyable summer years ago reading through an abridged but enormous collection of the Burton translation. Magnificent stories, and very much worthwhile to explore around the lesser known tales.
This was serendipitous today as I watched it just after finishing The Enlightenment of the Greengage Tree which draws directly on this whilst writing about the Iranian Revolution.

Hah! Frieda wins paws-down, I think!
