This book was recommended to me by my mother. This is such a beautiful book which can make us reflect how similar the struggles of people in the past have with the people in present. It's a book which describes of a friendship that cannot be defined. A friendship between two human being which brings the best out of each other and motivates each other to be the best version of themselves. Every rule even written in 1200s is still relevant today. Every chapter will compel one to stop and think and go back and re-read it.

A truly blissful read, with high spirited use of local syntax, recounting a complicated period in history and a magical description of two glorious characters. Definitely worth a read and read again... very highly recommended!
