It is time to continue our tale for this year, the tale of the Amazing tales challenge.
Tonight we will listen to episode no.271 of the Egyptian State radio show” One Thousand and one nights”, I would like to hint to an important thing.
Our radio show continued through the 1950s and 1960s, the epic age of Nasserite propaganda and Egyptian radio stations played a huge role in spreading that propaganda whether locally or regionally.
Our show was not an exception
Despite based loosely on the original One Thousand and One Nights book, writer Taher Abu Fasha was also inspired by current events taken place in that era and you can feel some Nasserite thoughts of that ideology in the show.
In our tale for instance, we got a king that tells his sons to be united against their enemy and not to be divided aka the idea of Unity between Arab countries and Pan Arabism.
Anyhow enough of chit chat and let’s listen to our tenth episode after the break
Damdam, King Haddam’s aide goes in disguise with evil Ifrit Rouh El-Khiana as a lost merchant and extremely beautiful wife heading to the Grand Temple of the Djinns and meeting with its high priest.
They are now Djinn couple Noah and Rouh.
At the temple, they claim that they were in a ship and a mutiny happened where the crew took over their merchandise and their stuff throwing them at the first island they would find.
At the island, the couple meets the high priest and Rouh began seducing him.
In the end, She asks the high priest to save her from her abusive husband.
Tomorrow we will know what will happen and how the high priest fell more into Rouh’s honey trap.
