Celestial is a love poem of 100 rhyming couplets wherein the poet restlessly seeks his beloved, who is playing a game of hide-and-seek in the remote corners of the universe. This breathtaking poem takes you on a poetic journey to all the 88 star constellations visible from Earth and reveals the hidden mysteries of the universe. Accompanied with 46 exquisite illustrations by the tenth-century Persian astronomer ‘Abd al-Rahman al-Sufi, Celestial makes a delightful read.
