The Verses of Omar Chayyām
One cannot escape the verses of Omar Chayyām (1048 – 1131), the Persian poet, mathematician, philosopher and astronomer, they get under your skin. Inevitably, they confront us with the finiteness of our own lifetime. We do not know where we come from or where we are going. What we have is only the now, the moment.
Let's rejoice in today, because no one has seen tomorrow.
With the calligraphy of the Persian script and the collages by Monica Schefold, the new bilingual edition from Sujet Verlag is a bibliophile treasure.
Translated from the Persian by Kurt Scharf
