Omar and Omar
in the Third Programme
Hugh Burden and John Slater in an Arabian fantasy by Gunter Eich
'My name is Omar and I am Caliph of Bagdad. I own castles, gardens, and a treasure-house full of precious stones. But there is something the matter with me - I'm afraid of the night. I don't sleep well. I am tormented by dreams.'
'My name is Omar, too. I am a Stevedore down at the harbour of Hanad, on the coast of China. I live in a humble cottage. The wages are low and we live very poorly. But there is one thing I am perfectly happy about: I sleep well and have beautiful dreams'
