Pursuing Persian

Hello. Me again. To be honest, I haven't done much reading lately. In fact, not really any at all. I can't seem to get into Lolita like I thought I would, and there isn't anything else on the reading list that i want to read at the moment. But, while we were going through our last unit in World Lit, Persian Literature, I came across a summary for a piece called Scheherazade. Its a story about how a princess cleverly staves off her execution by spinning tales for a vicious king. I was excited and very interested in reading it, but when I turned the page, the story wasn't there. I was SO disappointed. So, I'm going to find it myself, and read it. ^.^ Aren't you proud Mrs.Olson?

  4. I love that story, too. We just didn't seem to have time to read all the stories. You'll have to blog to let me know if I should make time for it.
