חלם עיר החכמים
העיר חלם התפרסמה בעולם בעיקר תודות לסיפורים המבדחים הרבים על "חכמי חלם" ומעשיהם התמימים-אויליים, סיפורים שבגללם זוכה אדם לתואר "חלמאי".
עשרת הסיפורים הכלולים בספר הם גרסה חדשה של כמה מהמעשיות העממיות, שנוצרו על חכמי חלם.
אוריאל אופק, המוכר לקוראים מספריו ומתרגומיו הרבים, כתב את המעשיות האלה מחדש וגם הוסיף להן נופך מדמיונו.
