Beskrivelse af Rubaiyat Of A Motor Car (1906)
Rubaiyat of a Motor Car is a collection of poetry written by American author Carolyn Wells and published in 1906. The book consists of a series of quatrains, or four-line stanzas, that humorously describe the joys and challenges of driving a motor car in the early 20th century.The poems are written in the style of the Rubaiyat, a form of Persian poetry made famous by the poet Omar Khayyam. Wells uses this form to explore the pleasures of the open road, the thrill of speed, and the freedom that comes with driving a car. She also pokes fun at the various mishaps and inconveniences that can occur while driving, such as getting lost or running out of gas.Throughout the book, Wells demonstrates a deep love and appreciation for the automobile, which was still a relatively new invention at the time. She celebrates the sense of adventure and possibility that comes with driving a car, while also acknowledging the responsibility that comes with operating such a powerful machine.Overall, Rubaiyat of a Motor Car is a charming and witty collection of poetry that captures the spirit of early 20th century driving culture. It offers a unique glimpse into the world of the early automobile enthusiast and is sure to delight readers who appreciate both poetry and vintage cars.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
