Rubáiyát of a Motor Car
1906
Rubáiyát of a Motor Car, published in 1906 by Carolyn Wells, is a humorous poem that parodies the classic Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám. The poem captures the early 20th-century automobile culture, exploring the joys and challenges of car ownership with wit and insight. Through lively imagery and clever wordplay, Wells addresses themes of technology, human folly, and the social dynamics of motoring, making it a unique reflection on the era's obsession with automobiles.
