Klappentext zu „Wilson, W: Alif the Unseen “
A compelling and bewitching first novel, perfect for book groups, that mixes old world magic with modern adventure. When Alif meets the aristocratic Intisar, he believes he has found love. But Intisar is promised to another man, so she sends the heartbroken Alif a mysterious book: The Thousand and One Days. With the book in his hands, Alif finds himself drawing attention - far too much attention - from both men and djinn. Thus begins an adventure that takes him through the crumbling streets of a once-beautiful city, to uncover the long-forgotten mysteries of the Unseen.
