Book Summary
The Persian poet Rumi, who wrote in the 13th Century, has become increasingly popular today. This selection comes from his monumental work, "The Mathnawi"--perhaps the longest mystical poem ever written, containing 24,000 verses in rhyming couplets. Thanks to E.H. Whinfield's translation and commentary, these tales--filled with Sufi wisdom, insight, and humor--are wonderfully accessible to a wide audience.
