The Lover's Rubaiyat (1904)

The Lover's Rubaiyat is a collection of poems by the Persian poet Omar Khayyam, translated into English by Edward FitzGerald in 1904. The Rubaiyat is a series of quatrains, or four-line stanzas, that explore themes such as love, mortality, and the search for meaning in life. The poems are known for their philosophical depth and their celebration of earthly pleasures, particularly wine and love. The Lover's Rubaiyat is a beautiful and timeless exploration of the human condition and the quest for spiritual fulfillment, and continues to be celebrated as one of the great works of Persian literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
