About the book

Our foremost theorist of myth, fairytale, and folktale explores the magical realm of the imagination where carpets fly and genies grant prophetic wishes. "Stranger Magic" examines the profound impact of the" Arabian Nights" on the West, the progressive exoticization of magic, and the growing acceptance of myth and magic in contemporary experience.
