By the 1880s, the book was extremely popular throughout the English-speaking world, to the extent that numerous "Omar Khayyam clubs" were formed and there was a "fin de siècle cult of the Rubaiyat".[1] The work has been published in several hundred editions and has inspired similar translation efforts in English, Hindi and in many other languages.
