Set in Baghdad during the reign of Harun Al-Rashid, this tale explores a king's instant infatuation with a beautiful widow. Inspired by a family poem, Emile Tubiana crafts a narrative where a victorious general aids the widow in cleverly evading the king's advances. The story unfolds against the backdrop of post-battle tensions between the caliphate and the Byzantines, culminating in a resolution that brings joy to all involved.
