The Brass Bottle

By: Anstey, F.

Uncork a world of enchantment with F. Anstey's hilarious fantasy, "The Brass Bottle." This timeless satire explores the chaotic consequences of a well-intentioned act: a man unwittingly releases a powerful jinn from his ancient prison.

What follows is a delightful clash of cultures as the genie, bound by honor to serve his liberator, attempts to repay the favor with displays of magic and power that are both extravagant and utterly disruptive. Anstey's humor shines in this tale of mistaken intentions and escalating absurdities.

Prepare to be charmed by this enduring story where ancient magic meets Victorian sensibilities. A classic of its kind, "The Brass Bottle" offers a witty and engaging exploration of fantasy, satire, and the timeless appeal of a good genie story.
