"TRAVELOGUE, ADVENTURE STORY, ROMANCE, THIS BOOK HAS GOT IT ALL!," A REVIEW BY OUR VERY OWN VEDA! THIS BOOK IS SOOO BEAUTIFUL! IT'S ABOUT 10TH CENTURY PERSIAN POET OMAR KHAYAAM AND HIS REAL LIFE LIVED IN PURSUIT OF DIVINE TRUTH AND BEAUTY (VIZ FALLING IN LOVE, DRINKING WINE, LOOKING AT THE STARS, CONVERSING FOR HOURS WITH A KINDRED SOUL...). IT'S ABOUT ORIENTALISM, IMPERIALISM, AND THE CULTURALLY REACTIONARY GEOPOLITICAL EFFECTS OF WESTERN HEGEMONIC EXPANSION! IT'S ABOUT THE SINKING OF THE TITANIC! IT'S WAY GODDAMN BETTER THAN DUNE! JUST READ IT AND BE CHANGED INSIDE!
