About This Novel

This book is a representative poetry work by the Persian poet and mathematician Omarja, and was translated by the British poet Fitzgerald. It's in English, so English lovers shouldn't miss it. "The Rubaiyat" is a four-line collection of poems written by the Persian poet and mathematician Omaga. Its form is similar to Chinese quatrains. The content is mostly about the uncertainty of life and the impermanence of ups and downs. It can be interpreted as enjoying the times, drinking and singing. The British Edward Fitzgerald translated and introduced this collection of poems to the English-speaking world. His translation was a free translation, which maintained the rhythmic form of the original poems and has become a classic of British literature.
