Yeah, we want the women too! ;)
Once, when Mullah Nasruddin was visiting a Western town, he was invited to attend a fashion show. He went, and afterwards he was asked how he liked it. "It's a complete swindle!" he exclaimed indignantly. "Whatever do you mean?" he was asked. "They show you the women - and then try to sell you the clothes!"

Dear People:
We at Sophia Perennis have just published a new book of Nasrudin stories entitled Tales of Nasrudin: Keys to Fulfillment (paperback, 125 pages, 105 stories; $18.95; £13.50; also available in hardcover.)They were translated by Ali Jamnia; each story has commentaries by Ali Jamnia and/or Charles Daniel and/or Charles Upton (me). The commentaries do not pretend to be exhaustive -- how could they be? But they do start the ball rolling toward a greater understanding of the multidimensional quality of these tales. If you're interested in purchasing one or more copies, just get back to me. (We grant a 40% discount to resellers on orders of 5 or more.) Alao available through www.amazon.com, www.barnesandnoble.com, and www.amazon.co.uk
Sincerely,
Charles Upton, for Sophia Perennis
Sincerely,
Charles Upton
