About this book
In an era marked by the dawn of the automobile, "Rubáiyát of a Motor Car" by Carolyn Wells captures the spirit of early 20th-century motoring with playful wit and charm. This delightful poem parodies the esteemed "Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám," weaving together humor and insight into the joys and trials of driving. With vivid imagery and clever wordplay, Wells explores themes of freedom and adventure, reminiscent of the exhilarating promise of the open road. Ideal for students, literary enthusiasts, and historians alike, this work invites readers to reflect on the cultural shift brought about by the automobile. Discover the whimsical side of motoring through Wells' unique lens, where every stanza offers a fresh perspective on this transformative era.
