The Rubaiyat of the Commuter : Being Quatrains Concerning the Affairs of Everyday (1905)

By Harry Persons Taber

The Rubaiyat of the Commuter is a book of quatrains written by Harry Persons Taber and first published in 1905. The quatrains are concerned with the everyday affairs of the commuter, and offer humorous and satirical insights into the frustrations and challenges of commuting. Taber's witty and insightful observations touch on a range of topics, from the monotony of the daily commute to the joys and sorrows of office life, the trials of family and domesticity, and the pleasures of leisure and relaxation. The book is written in the style of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam, a classic Persian poem, and features a series of four-line verses that are both clever and thought-provoking. The Rubaiyat of the Commuter is a delightful and entertaining read that offers a unique perspective on the daily grind of modern life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
