El May 16 2016, un lector dijo:
With Paintings and Decorations by Sarkis Katchadourian, born in Iran, where he recreated romantic frescoes in old palaces, he then trained in Rome, continued in Paris and then later in Munich. It is really fitting that this cosmopolitan artist's original paintings reproduced in bright colors and the black and white line drawings take you there celebrate under a bough with a book of verse and flask of wine you are magically drawn in and there drinking in the words of the poet.... drunk on the verse.

Fantastic poetry from 11th century Persia as translated by a depressed Englishman going through a divorce in 1859. The first translation is by far the best but it is interesting to get several of them and compare. I'm not a huge poetry fan but I love the simplicity, imagery and strange allegories Omar Khayyam writes about. He was apparently a big fan of the wine.

All genre (science fiction, mystery, fiction, contemporary romance, historical romance, non-fiction, history, etc.) includes paperbacks and hardbacks. My speciality is putting together sets in all genre. If you don't see the book listed in my online inventory, send an e-mail as I just may have a copy on the floor. I opened the store in Dec. 1976. with only 1500 books and have grown through the years until the present location in 1983. Come check us out on facebook.
