Summary

Rumi's cherished and timeless wisdom, from the celebrated and bestselling poet Daniel Ladinsky 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, Ladinsky explores the nuances of desire-that universal emotion-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 and one of the most widely read poets in the English language.

Author Biography

Daniel Ladinsky’s books include A Year with Hafiz, I Heard God Laughing, and The Gift, as well as a collection of translations of poems by twelve mystics and saints, Love Poems from God. He lives in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

Nancy Owen Barton has worked with Daniel since the publication of his first Hafiz volume, in 1996.
