Features: Avantí is a precious and vibrant humor character contributed by the ancient and lively folk world. This perpetually optimistic and eloquent man is somewhat kind-hearted, clever, mischievous, worldly, reckless, unlucky, foolish, always riding a stubborn donkey, appearing in rural fields, royal courts, high society, courts, celebrations, markets, travels, families, and all sorts of places where disputes, challenges, ridicule, embarrassment, intellectual tests, and various traps await him. This lucky person seems to always turn misfortune into good fortune, emerging from all kinds of dangers with dignity, leaving behind a pile of jokes. Avantí's stories have been passed down for eight hundred years. If this research is credible, then Avantí's original name should have been Nasreddin Hodja, born in 1208, primarily active in southwestern Turkey. Of course, this claim has been strongly opposed by Uzbeks, Arabs, Chinese, Africans, and others. "The Complete Avantí" is a carefully compiled and selected work that draws from various versions of Avantí stories from around the world, uncovering and adding a large number of previously overlooked anecdotes and Avantí-like tales (including "The Stories of Nasreddin" and "The Stories of Juha," etc.), along with hundreds of newly designed comic illustrations. This twelve-volume set is meticulously arranged, and it is believed to bring readers a fresh experience and make them laugh even louder.
