A full reading of an in-copyright book can’t be public, so this one is for members from the first page.

Picture a carpet booth in the bazaar at Zanzib, where a young merchant named Abdullah sells rugs by day and daydreams about being a lost prince by night. Tonight, a stranger arrives with a dingy rolled carpet — and an air of someone who knows exactly what it's worth.
