The protagonist is an aged Sinbad who, settled in the land of Bolanda, entertains the patrons of an inn by recalling his voyages in the service of caliphs and sultans. His tales populate the world with fabulous islands, imaginary geographies and unusual creatures, and his last wish is to sail again on a ship that is being built for him.
The work was originally published as «Si o vello Sinbad volvese ás illas...» in 1961, and this edition belongs to the Destinolibro collection (vol. 288).
