Miriam Robinson Gould, Storyteller

Before saying farewell to her sister, Shahrazad gave her these instructions: "When I am received by the King, I shall send for you. Then, when the King has finished his act with me, you must say: "Tell me, my sister, some tale of marvel to beguile the night." Then I will tell you a tale which, if Allah wills, shall be the means of our deliverance.
