- Second Old Man's Tale
- The Story of the Fisherman and the Demon
My reaction:
What is with people and being so jealous that they want to kill people in this book? First the old man's wife wants to kill the mistress. Now the second old man's brothers want to kill him because of his wealth. These are people, and murder is not a legitimate reason to take away their lives. People also have some odd ways of getting revenge. Changing people into animals is apparently a bad fate. Sure its not ideal, but couldn't they just go to jail or something instead of making them into a deer or dog. Third of all, what are demons exactly? There was the nice she-demon of god but then there are demons so bad that they are in a jar for 800 years. Alot of levels into the story happened by the end of the Fisherman and the Demon. Shahrazad, the old man telling the Demon, the Fisherman, who is going to start telling a story. Wow. That is very confusing.
