Where do we come from? How was the world formed? From ancient times to the present, from East to West, this is a question that mankind has been busy trying to find an answer to. There is no shortage of fairy tales, legends and myths that have been born as an effort to decode the world in the language of spirituality and symbols. And that is also the content of “A Thousand and One Ways the World Was Born”.
“A Thousand and One Ways the World Was Born” published by Tri Thuc Tre Books in collaboration with Dan Tri Publishing House, brings creation legends from all over the world to readers in a humorous and light-hearted style.

The journey of discovery unfolds through 20 creation myths from civilizations around the world. From familiar stories in Greek and Norse mythology to little-known myths of the Mayans, Aztecs and Australian Aborigines. Including the Vietnamese God of Heaven, the spider goddess Aerop-Enap in Nauruan culture...
What is special is that the book does not simply retell ancient legends but recreates them in a modern, youthful, creative and emotional voice. Morpheus leads readers into a colorful world - where heaven and earth are still in harmony, gods create the universe from rocks, cigarette smoke, eggs... Those metaphorical images contain profound messages about life, death, chaos, order and the relationship between humans and nature.
“A Thousand and One Ways the World Came to Be” is not only interesting in terms of content but also demonstrates the author's efforts in connecting human cultures through a common theme: The origin of the universe and human life.
Through each story, readers can recognize the common points between seemingly distant cultures. That is curiosity, the desire to explain existence and the sacred connection between humans and the world around them.
