Local notes

Stories told on nights 963 through the 1001st.

Also included are smaller anecdotes from inside other narratives that were skipped in earlier volumes for purposes of story flow, and various tales from other manuscripts, editions and collections under the title "1001 Nights" that did not appear in the Turner Macan / Abu Abd-Allah manscript forming the basis of these collections. This is the final of six hardcovers collecting the entirety of "One Thousand and One Nights" in Norwegian translation, only abridging certain repetitive phrasings, rehashed near-identical tales, poems, etc.
