This fourth book of Nasrudin tales from the acclaimed storyteller, Tahir Shah, concerns the trials and tribulations of the inimitable wise fool's life in the Land of Fools.
Some Nasrudin stories are overtly hilarious, while others are downright odd, yet all of them get the listener's brain working in new ways.
For a thousand years, stories such as these have been relied upon - from Morocco in the west to China in the east - to impart wisdom, while challenging conventional thinking.
GENIUS MACHINE
Nasrudin invented a device to turn fools into geniuses, and geniuses into fools.
As word of the machine spread, Foolslanders hurried to the capital and stood in line.
Paying their money, some of the dimmest fools in existence became geniuses in the blink of an eye.
But, one at a time, the geniuses queued up again to be turned back into fools.
Nasrudin asked one of them why he wanted to be turned back.
'I always wanted to be a genius, ' he said, 'but now I have experienced it, I realize it's so much less exhausting to go through life as a fool.'

Most authentic book compilation on the Oregon Trail I ever read. The way the diaries are brought to life from over 170 years ago is a remarkable achievement. Top book of year so far for me for today June 01, 2024 review Candice
This author is a breathe of fresh air in a world of lies and coverups. He brings ancient writings and new science to bring light to mankind. In this amazing work, the well known plato stories from antiquity are now put alongside this new discovery of tablets from beginning of time. This is the most complete explanation of Atlantis every brought to the public. Shame on the governments of Egypt and the world for hiding WHO BUILT THE PHYRAMIDS OF GIZA AND THE SPHINX. Once I read this book I knew why they hid this knowledge. They don't want a population to know how great the world used to be compared to know.
Randomly stumbled upon this book and I am shocked that I haven’t heard about it before. It’s hands down the best story I’ve read in years. People need to read this book. It needs to be turned into a book. This story is just plain awsome. M
This soulful book of personal poetry brought me into the past and into the present---and into my heart.
Read the first book and this 2nd one did not disappoint! Loved every chapter. More please!
