Blending myth and history, this epic chronicles the Persian people's journey from their origin myths to the seventh-century Muslim conquest. Composed of 50,000 couplets by Ferdowsi over a millennium ago, it serves as a guardian of Persian culture and language during turbulent times. The translation by Ahmad Sadri, accompanied by a preface from Hamid Rahmanian, offers an engaging prose rendition, inviting readers to experience thrilling adventures with superhuman heroes, magical beings, and poignant love stories.
