The Merchant and the Alchemist's Gate
Ted ChiangIn medieval Baghdad, a penniless man is brought before the most powerful man in the world, the Caliph himself, to tell his story. It begins with a walk in the bazaar, but soon grows into a tale unlike any other told in the Caliph's empire. It's a story that includes not just buried treasure and a band of thieves, but also men haunted by their past and others trapped by their future; it includes not just a beloved wife, but also long journeys taken by caravan and even longer ones taken with a single step. Above all, it's a story about recognizing the Will of Allah and accepting It, no matter what form It takes.
