The Three Orange-Peris

The Three Orange-Peris is a Turkish fairy tale first collected by Hungarian Turkologist Ignác Kúnos in the late 19th century. It is classified as tale type ATU 408, "The Love for Three Oranges", of the international Aarne-Thompson-Uther Index. As with The Three Oranges, the tale deals with a prince's search for a bride that lives inside a fruit, who is replaced by a false bride and goes through a cycle of incarnations, until she regains physical form again.
