There is no simpler or more luminous parable in the history of literature than that of Scheherazade and Sahrigar to explain the raison d'être of fiction in the lives of human beings." Mario Vargas Llosa "For Scheherazade, telling stories that capture the King's attention is a matter of life or death. If Sahrigar loses interest or gets bored of her stories, she will be handed over to the executioner at dawn. This mortal danger sharpens her imagination and leads her, without knowing it, to discover that the world of fiction is, like the real world, one, diverse and unbreakable. When King Sahrigar forgives his wife, he is someone whom the stories have transformed into a civil, sensitive and dreaming being." Mario Vargas Llosa ENGLISH DESCRIPTION No other work in the history of literature can provide a clearer and more luminous parable to explain the raison dêtre of fiction in human life than that of Scheherazade and Shahryar. For Scheherazade, it is a matter of life and death to ensure her stories capture the attention of the king. If she fails to do so, will be delivered into the hands of the executioner at daybreak. This state of mortal peril sharpens her creativity and leads her to discover that the world of fiction is, just like the real world, a diverse and unbreakable one.
