The night counter Alia Yunis

An enchanting book that winks and glitters like the bangles that line Scheherazades arms. The Night Counter is funny, sly, charming, delicious, madcap - and a gorgeous celebration of the way stories weave and shape our lives. After eighty-five long years, Fatimah Abdullah is dying, and she knows when her time will come. In fact, it should come just nine days from tonight, the 992nd nightly visit of Scheherazade, the beautiful and immortal storyteller from the epic - The Arabian Nights.
