Persian Letters

Two Persian travellers arrive in Paris and report on the European society of the Enlightenment in their letters home. With biting satire they compare East and West, while unsettling news from the harem provides a suspenseful plot of jealousy and passion. This is the first English translation based on the original text.

Doi calatori persani sosesc la Paris si raporteaza despre societatea europeana a Iluminismului in scrisorile lor acasa. Cu o satira aprinsa, ei compara Estul si Vestul, in timp ce stirile tulburatoare din harem ofera un complot plin de suspans de gelozie si pasiune.
