message 1: by BookLovingLady (deceased Jan. 25, 2023...) (last edited Mar 02, 2014 05:17AM) (new)

BookLovingLady (deceased Jan. 25, 2023...) Can someone tell me what the first book on this list is (سفرنامه برادران امیدوار)? I can't read Arabic (and I'm guessing the language is Arabic), and both title and author are in Arabic, hence my question, as the book seems to be well read (which made me curious as to its contents).

Peg I think it's Farsi for The Brothers Will Travel, and in Roman script the author's name would be something like Aysa Amidouar. I've never heard of the book or the author, though.

I ran it through the translator yesterday but didn't get any the wiser, as it said something like 'Itinerary ... brothers'. (Forgot the second word). So you're probably right with 'The Brothers Will Travel'. Thanks!

Capn Just wanted to say that everything I've added is free on OpenLibrary and/or Project Gutenberg.

Also, as a resident of Switzerland, I'm very happy to offer free travel advice. Just give me a holler. Can also recommend a bazillion books on the country, mostly vintage (midcentury) juvenile fiction. ;)

Gute Reise! :)
