Product Description Une magnifique traduction d'une sélection de quatrains d'Omar Khayyâm, l'illustre mathématicien et poète du XIIe siècle, auxquels Vincent-Mansour Monteil a ajouté les ballades du grand poète de Shirâz From the Back Cover Omar Khayyâm, mathématicien et poète persan mort en 1132, a laissé un grand nombre de robâ‘iyât (quatrains), dont on a toujours admiré en Orient la construction rigoureuse et le ton sceptique. Les deux paraphrases anglaises de Fitzgerald (1859 et 1868) les ont fait connaître en Europe, mais il restait à leur rendre justice par une version française rimée et rythmée. C'est le pari que réussit ici Vincent-Mansour Monteil qui en a choisi cent soixante-douze. Les Quatrains sont suivis de neuf ghazal (ballades) de Hâfez de Shirâz, mort en 1389, dont Goethe, dès 1819, dans son Divan d'Occident et d'Orient, a célébré l'immense génie poétique.

Vingt contes bilingues emblématiques de la littérature populaire et de la culture persane. Entre la vie quotidienne et le surnaturel, ces récits issus d'une longue tradition légendaire et historique évoquent les rapports familiaux ou les conflits d'intérêts entre les différentes couches de la société.

Jean, un employé de bureau accro au café et aux I.A décide d'aider Quentin, un humain amnésique coincé dans une puce, à retrouver son corps. Débute alors une enquête déjantée qui remet rapidement la vie de jean en question.
