Inspired by the sacred geometry of SufismFilled with beauty, poetry and profound insights into the Golden Age of IslamThe Lost Fragrance of Infinity appeals both to the head and the heartIn 1739, Qaraar Ali, a young craftsman from Delhi witnesses the destruction of his world as he has known it. His wondrous city where he found love, spirituality, the friendship of poets and philosophers becomes a desolate, scorching hell. From the embers of his past, a journey begins; one which takes him into the depths of Sufi philosophy. Traversing spectacular landscapes of a fading Mughal Empire, a turbulent Central Asia and Persia, a culturally retreating Ottoman Empire and declining Spanish influence, Qaraar Ali finds hope in the sacred geometry of the Sufis through which he attempts at rebuilding his life and rediscovering love. A deeply passionate love story imbued with spirituality, acceptance, compassion and redemption, The Lost Fragrance of Infinity gives a much-deserved voice to Sufism and its contributions to humanity, art, mathematics, mysticism and science.Inspired by the sacred geometry of SufismFilled with beauty, poetry and profound insights into the Golden Age of IslamThe Lost Fragrance of Infinity appeals both to the head and the heartIn 1739, Qaraar Ali, a young craftsman from Delhi witnesses the destruction of his world as he has known it.
