About This Book
Walid is an ideal prince; handsome, intelligent, courageous, cultured, and skilled in the arts of warfare and poetry. But the kingdom of Kinda boasts one greater poet than he — a poor carpet-weaver named Hammad — and out of jealousy, Walid commands him to create an impossible work of art: a carpet showing the history of the entire human race. Hammad dies weaving it. Men go mad seeing it. And when it is stolen, Walid discovers his life's quest: to recover the carpet and earn forgiveness for his mistakes.Items Added to Cart:
