Best Ebook 1001 Arabian Nightmares: Inspired by True Events & Other Lies, by Narendra Simone
Listen! Would you be interested in reading a few pages from a diary of a terrorist? Seriously! That is if you, like many others, believe that anyone who is from the Middle East is a potential terrorist. On the contrary I found that the Middle East is a wonderful place where laughter is in abundance. You just got to explode, I mean explore by traveling through various countries of the Middle East. Not only an exhilarating life experience, you will also discover mystery, adventure and plenty of humour. No time, no problem! I have done it for you. The last few years have been difficult for the Arab nations. The world seemed to have latched on to its stereotypical image without understanding Arab’s fascinating culture. Arabia is truly a fun place. It’s a secret that needs to be let out: Arabs have a deep-rooted sense of humour and it exists in their daily life. Let me explain. I know there are millions of people who can’t possibly believe what I’m telling them: that Arabs both have and appreciate a sense of humour. I know that the press has convinced you otherwise. And they will. That is their job and it helps them to sell newspapers. The only way to bring in a balanced perspective is to look closely at their humour. A good and clean sense of humour to enjoy and not rude or offensive to be upsetting! Come on, don’t be so serious, and smile. Did you know that humour in the Arab society is not recent or out of necessity? It has been in existence for centuries as an integral part of their culture. Way back in the Middle Ages, Mullah Nasruddin was one of the great humorists of Arab history. He has thousands of tales, my favourite is: When a ruler said to Nasruddin, “Mullah, all the great rulers of the past had honorific titles with the name of God in them. There was, for instance, ‘God-Gifted’, and ‘God-Accepted’, and so on. How about some such name for me?” Nasruddin thought only for a moment and said, “God Forbid.” See what I mean: subtle. I believe that the funniest humour is the one that you experience for yourself. So I packed my bags and travelled all through Arabia. I liked it so much that I stayed there for several years. Why? Because I wanted more to get past: A priest, a rabbi and a mullah walk into a bar. The barman says - “What is this, a joke?” I needed something fresh, original and personal. Did I get it? Well, I’d let you be the judge of that. Come along on an adventurous journey with me to the fascinating world of Arabia and experience a unique brand of humour that you would not find on the Internet. Not that I don’t trust the God Own Official Guide to Locating Everything (Google). Through these short, humorous stories I invite you on a journey of humour, mystery and adventure to the amazing Middle East.

The title is a little misleading perhaps as it is not full of gory murders or anything that is considered to be "horror". It is not one continuous story either but split in to 41 short stories of life in the Middle East. Packed with humor, it offers a different viewpoint on life and is all the better for doing so.If you have never stayed for a prolonged period in a very different culture and society to the one you are used to then this will open your eyes and hopefully help you appreciate that when people from outside your culture and society look at how your life your life, how strange it must appear to them. A good advertisement for a "live and let live philosophy" and not assume we all think alike.A book you will pick up more than once I am certain.

Different yet highly entertaining By Grace Let me tell you how 1001 Arabian Nightmares was so different from all the book that I have read so far but let's discuss a couple minor issues first before we go to the good stuff. Since the topics wasn't really my thing I had a hard time getting into the story - flow and pace wise. It took me a longer time to read some of the parts but when you get used to it, you'll enjoy it as much as I did. Another thing is that I get that the author wanted this to be entertaining but there are some parts of the book that I felt was overdone. It's mostly the last sentences of each chapter but I think it's the author's style so I got used to that too. Getting passed those too - this book is so much fun to read and can be a good book to pass time.Now here are the good parts of the story. First, since I don't really read these kinds of books the title and cover can be very intriguing. That alone gave the surprise themoment you jump into the story/ies. I enjoyed and laughed out silly most nights. Second, in connection to my first point, 1001 Arabian Nightmare was different. It gave me the feeling of reading "the inside scoop" of what it really meant to live in the Middle East without all those sugar coating. It was like seeing the backstage if you know what I mean. Each story is broken down into short stories that are random yet interconnected with each other so you wouldn't be bored since you'll jump from one thing to another. And most importantly, it was super entertaining.I highly recommend that you give this story a chance, you wouldn't be disappointed.

Whatever You Say, The Middle East Is Interesting By Marc Stern Desert SongEither I'm getting into Narendra Simone's head or he is getting into mine because I had a chance to review his "1001 Arabian Nightmares" and I found it to be an absolute scream. The thing about the area, Simone notes between the lines, is that once you are there you have to suspend your state of belief in anything amounting to anything you knew and then learn to live with a new atmosphere. Here's a place where folks cruise along in their huge SUVs and honk you out of the way with their headcoverings flapping out the windows covering everything to the rear, a cellphone pressed to that ear and a rearview aimed just so the driver can see himself. Or, how about a place where you can buy alcohol (the UAE, according to this book) and drink, just don't try having a normal conversation about it. And, then there's the one I liked about the guy driving with his wife at a slow 105 trying to change lanes where he nicks an even-slower driving policeman who is doing about 100. Well, the wife puts on her "I told you so look," as the rather large uniformed officer straightens himself out, after stopping the Westerner. They exchange proper greetings -- probably surprising the policeman -- have a discussion about veering and they are both off, with no more said? Huh? Having now read several of Simone's books -- he is really establishing an excellent reputation, I couldn't help but chuckle at the 41 chapters of "nightmares" that are just some weirdly wonderful stories. Simone is at least that, a great story-teller
