Overview
The day a boy is born, his parents are visited by a wise man who says, "This is a very, very important boy, and I'm going to give him something marvelous one day, but I will have to give him his name first. So please don't give him a name yet." So, his parents call him Benaam, which means Nameless. The story tells how the boy seeks, and eventually finds his own true name - and also finds much more.This book is one of a series of illustrated Teaching-Stories by Idries Shah, stories which have captivated hearts and minds for more than a thousand years.

Among the many insights in this story is the idea that it takes patience and resolve to achieve one's goals in life. Mona Caron's beautiful illustrations embellish this unusual and captivating story, presenting the wonder of this hidden world to both children and adults.
