About this book

F. Marion Crawford's Arabian tale follows Khaled, a genie who is granted a mortal body and one chance to earn an immortal soul: he must win the true love of the proud princess Zehowah before he dies. He takes human form, fights his way to her hand, and discovers that marrying her is far easier than teaching her heart to love him. Set amid the courts and deserts of a storybook Arabia, the novel blends the flavor of the Arabian Nights with a quiet meditation on love, faith, and what makes a soul. First published in 1891, it remains one of Crawford's most graceful romances. This free PDF and EPUB edition brings the fable back to readers who enjoy old-fashioned enchantment.
