Description

Renowned for his poignant renderings of Hafiz s mystical texts, Daniel Ladinsky captures the beauty, intimacy and musicality of another of Islam s most beloved poets and spiritual thinkers. In collaboration here with Nancy Owen Barton, and with learned insight and a delicate touch, they explore the nuances of desire in verse inspired by Rumi s love and admiration for his companion and spiritual teacher, Shams-e Tabriz. These poems thoughtfully capture the compelling wisdom of one of Islam s most revered artistic and religious voices.
