Summary :
Martin Kimeldorf writes: "My project began as a simple collection of my favorite quatrains that I recite when celebrating special, bright shiny moments or when facing into the shadows of difficult times. It was to be part memoir and part speculation about the relevance of Omar to our times. Eventually, my project bloomed into a more complete study of both Omar, FitzGerald and various controversies surrounding the poems and poets."
