Publisher's Synopsis

The Anwar-I-Suhaili, also known as Kalilah and Damnah, is a collection of fables adapted by Mulla Husain Bin 'Ali Wai'z-Al-Kashifi from the original work of Mulla Husain Bin Ali Al Waiiz-Al-Kashifi. The book contains tales of animals and their moral lessons, which were originally written in Sanskrit and later translated into Persian. The fables are presented in the form of stories told by a wise old jackal named Kalilah to his friend, a young and naive bull named Damnah. The tales are intended to teach moral values and life lessons to readers of all ages. The Anwar-I-Suhaili is considered a classic of Persian literature and has been translated into many languages over the years.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
