He is a cheater and is cheated. He sets traps for others and falls into traps himself; he is simpleton and liar, victimizer and victim. But as a literary figure he never dies. The nearly 300 stories in this lovely volume are from Sephardic oral literature and ethnic culture. They were told to Matilda Koen-Sarano in their original language, Judeo-Spanish (Ladino), and documented over 21 years. From 17 countries, including the United States, they come together in this first-ever collection of Joh 606 $aNasreddin Hoca (Legendary character)$vFolklore 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNasreddin Hoca (Legendary character) 676 $a398.2/089/924 701 $aKoe?n-Sarano$b Matilda$f1939-$01028032 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910449901603321 996 $aFolktales of Joha, Jewish trickster$92443843 997 $aUNINA
