A lush modern fairytale in which our world has been plunged into an age of unreason, Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights is a breathtaking achievement and an enduring testament to the power of storytelling"--  a"Once upon a time, in a world just like ours, there came "the time of the strangenesses." Reason receded and the loudest, most illiberal voices reigned. A simple gardener began to levitate, and a powerful djinn -- also known as the Princess of Fairyland -- raised an army composed entirely of her semi-magical great-great-great-grandchildren. A baby was born with the ability to see corruption in the faces of others. The ghosts of two philosophers, long dead, began arguing once more. And a battle for the kingdom of Fairyland was waged throughout our world for 1,001 nights -- or, to be more precise, for two years, eight months, and twenty-eight nights. Two Years, Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights is a masterful, playfully enchanting meditation on the power of love and the importance of rationality, replete with flying carpets and dynastic intrigue"--  aschoollSAC 0aJinnvFiction. 0aMagicvFiction. 7aFICTION / Literary.2bisacsh 7aFICTION / Fairy Tales, Folk Tales, Legends & Mythology.2bisacsh 7aFantasy fiction.2gsafd 7aLove stories.2gsafd423Cover imageu9780812998917.jpg  2ddccBK  c25545d25504  00102ddc4071aIUBLbIUBLd2022-03-03ePURCHASEg444.00h2016l0o823.914 R952tp028096r2022-03-03 00:00:00t01v888.00w2022-03-03yBK
