Episode description

Aladdin by Adam Oehlenschlager audiobook.

Genre: folklore

In Adam Oehlenschlager's Aladdin, the familiar tale from One Thousand and One Nights is reimagined as a sweeping dramatic poem, where street life, palace intrigue, and the unseen world of spirits collide. Aladdin is a handsome but aimless young man, a burden to his hardworking parents, until a mysterious stranger, the sorcerer Nureddin, draws him into a perilous expedition for a hidden treasure. Deep underground, Aladdin stumbles into a power that can reshape his fate: a wonder-working lamp, guarded by forces that do not serve human pride lightly. Back in the city, Aladdin is pulled toward the court of Sultan Soliman and the radiant Princess Gulnare, while rival ambitions tighten around the throne and a promised match threatens to close every door. Between the tenderness of home, the glitter of royal ceremony, and the temptations of sudden power, Aladdin must learn what kind of man he intends to become - and what it truly costs to command miracles.
