Forty Tales is a curated selection of Iranian folk stories compiled and retold by Manouchehr Karimzadeh. Drawn from oral traditions collected over the past fifty years, the stories are rewritten in accessible prose while preserving their original spirit and narrative flow. The tales are categorized into six thematic groups: national, moral, fairy and jinn, humorous, animal, and chain stories. Supplementary tables at the end of the book provide insights into each tale’s theme, message, and folkloric structure. A glossary of colloquial expressions is also included to help readers—especially Persian speakers living abroad—better understand the cultural nuances embedded in the stories.
