5.0 out of 5 stars
Brilliant, eloquent translation of Rumi's mystical poems,
By A Customer
This review is from: Selected Poems from the Divani Shamsi Tabriz (Hardcover)
Rumi's poetry, as brought to us by the brilliant and moving translations of Nicholson, represents one of the highest forms of mystical romantic outpourings. Like Fitzgerald/Khayyam, one is judging the poetic expression of Rumi through the translation of Nicholson. The end result is one of the most remarkable collection of poems, full of emotional impact, weighty with philosophical import. This book is not easy to find, so is a must-have for anyone interested in this subject.
