Three Thousand Years of Longing

CriticsCritics: 66
AudienceAudience: 6.9

A solitary scholar discovers an ancient bottle during a trip to Istanbul and releases a djinn who offers three wishes. Unsure what to ask for, she listens as he recounts stories from his long past, sharing tales of love, power, and human longing.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like thoughtful fantasy, romantic themes, and stories within stories; Not for you if you prefer fast-moving plots, steady pacing, or a straightforward adventure.
