Considered the greatest mystical poet of Iran, Rumi is also known as "the Sufi poet of love." His stirring and mesmerizing words have gained a new appreciation in the western world, influencing celebrities and musicians from Deepak Chopra to Coldplay and Madonna. Rumi produced an enormous body of work--as many as 2,500 mystical odes; 25,000 rhyming couplets; and 1,600 quatrains--each reflecting his fervent belief in the transformative powers of longing, love, and spirituality. This beautifully designed hardcover volume presents more than one hundred of Rumi's finest verses, including "The Marriage of True Minds," "The Children of Light," "The Man Who Looked Back on His Way to Hell," "The Ascending Soul," "The Pear-Tree of Illusion," "The Riddles of God," and many more.
