Product Description
This romantic epic by the 13th century Georgian poet Rust'haveli has been in a unique manner the book of a nation for 700 years. It was expected that the text, supposedly based on a Persian original and reflecting Georgia's position as a crossroads between east and west, would be memorized by all female members of the country's aristocracy.
