Molla Nəsrəddinin şəhəri

Molla Nasreddin's Town

In the little town of Ağşəhər, Molla Nəsrəddin feeds pilaf to his fur coat, lets a copper cauldron give birth, and fishes the moon out of a well. Sixteen of the best-loved anecdotes of the wise fool — each a complete story with its punchline — linked into one warm small-town cycle and graded from first-steps A1 to confident A2 Azerbaijani.
