Fate the Hunter: Early Arabic Hunting Poems - Library of Arabic Literature
James E. Montgomery
In these poems, many of them translated into English for the first time, trained cheetahs chase oryx, and goshawks glare from falconers’ arms, while archers stalk their prey across the desert plains and mountain ravines of the Arabian peninsula. Montgomery, acclaimed translator, offers a new edition and translation of twenty-six early works of hunting poetry, or ?ardiyy?t.
