    Accused of mocking the inviolate codes of Islam, Persian poet Omar Khayyam fortuitously finds sympathy with the very man who is to judge his alledged crime. He is spared, and thus begins the blend of fact and fiction that is 'Samarkand'.

    The story of 'Samarkand' is woven round the history of Omar Khayyam's 'Rubaiyaat', from its creation by the poet in 11th century Persia to its loss when the Titanic sank in 1912.
