Product Description

Jalaluddin Rumi (1207-1273), one of the world's most beloved poets, poured out thousands of verses expressing a wonderful, high-soaring love for God. Rendered in rhythmic language, the poems collected in this book echo the enraptured dances created by Rumi and made famous by the whirling dervishes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Rumi in excellent translation, May 26, 2000
By M. J. Smith (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Annemarie Schimmel is an internationally recognized expert on Sufism in general and Rumi in particular. In this selection of poems of Rumi, she also shows herself to be a woman of excellent poetic sense in English.

Especially enjoyable in this small volume are poems that reflect the common origins of Judaism, Christianity and Islam: "... You be an ocean and throw out the boat! / You be a world and throw away the world! .............

If you enjoy Sufi poetry or Rumi, consider this book a must.
