Forty-four Turkish Fairy Tales - Ignacz Kunos. Sacred Texts Asia Contents Start Reading This book draws on the rich folklore of Turkey.
Forty-four Turkish Fairy Tales is long out of print, for reasons which will become clear below. For one thing, this edition had lavish production standards: it is in an oversize quarto format, with gold deckling, about ten inches in height. It has two-color printing on every page, and 16 tipped (i.e., hand-glued) four-color plates. Most of these stories are framed by the usual fairy tale apparatus. There are graphics on nearly every page, with titles and initials in quasi-Arabic script and decorations inspired by Islamic art. The page layout is wrapped around these graphics, sometimes to the detriment of readability. There are a couple of caveats. --J.B.
