In despair at having no son to succeed him, the King of Turkey leaves his palace to live in seclusion. Soon after, however, he encounters four wandering dervishes - three princes and a rich merchant from Persia, Yemen and China - who have been guided to Turkey by a supernatural force that prophesied their meeting. The five men sit together in the dead of night, each in turn telling the tale of lost love that led him to renounce the world. As their stories within stories unfold, a magnificent world is revealed of courtly intrigue and romance, fairies and djinn, oriental gardens and lavish feasts, adventures and mishaps. A Tale of Four Dervishes (1803) is an exquisite example of Urdu fiction that provides a fascinating glimpse into the customs, beliefs and people of the time.

"...arrives like the brightest comet, a dazzling work of art full of invention, playfulness and Chaucerian tale-telling, by fakirs in a far-off cemetery. Their ornate stories are full of Mughals and caliphs, old kings and city black-outs. This heady, compelling fusion of cultures – East meeting West – complete with social satire is a remarkable debut. Easily the most remarkable work of fiction to come out of Wales in a thousand moons." – Jon Gower "Four Dervishes is a fascinating adaptation of a medieval classic spun into a satirical and magical realist novel about our times." – Tabish KhairOne monsoon night, a power cut forces a man full of disappointments on to the streets of the town. Sheltering in a cemetery he comes across four others – a grave digger, an aristocrat, an honourable criminal and a messiah – each with a past, and with a story to tell. Crimes have been committed, dark family secrets revealed, fortunes rise and fall, the varieties of love are explored, and new selves are discovered in a rich round of storytelling. And as the Disappointed Man discovers, a new story is about to begin...Four Dervishes draws on a long tradition of storytelling as it skewers issues like religious bigotry, injustice, the denial of women's rights, and class division. Lavishly inventive, verbally rich, an exotic confection, this novel is both darkly thematic and humorously playful.
