Haroun Khalifa’s father, Rashid, is the famous Shah of Blah, the Ocean of Notions . His storytelling powers are renowned throughout the land but when Haroun’s mother Soraya runs away with the next-door neighbour, Rashid loses his gift. Haroun resolves to help his father regain his storytelling abilities. Doing so means embarking on a fantastical and highly dangerous voyage where fact and fiction blur.
