Andrew Lang (1844 – 1912) was a Scots poet, novelist, literary critic, and contributor to the field of anthropology. He is best known as a collector of folk and fairy tales. The Andrew Lang lectures at the University of St Andrews are named after him. Lang was also a prolific author of works both fiction and non-; he wrote his own fairy tales such as Prince Prigio and Prince Ricardo of Pantouflia , and wrote numerous historical texts.
'Story of Wali Dad the Simple-Hearted' is a fairy-tale that was published as a part of 'The Brown Fairy Book' in 1904. The central figure of the story is Wali Dad — a man who never thinks about himself. At first sight this feature of his seems rather useful, but as the time shows it is useful for everyone but him. How will this story end? Read it until the end and you will know!
