Description
Divine songs of love and ecstasy from the most treasured poet of Persia
To Persians, the 14th-century poems of Hafiz are not classical literature from a remote past, but cherished love, wisdom, and humor from a dear and intimate friend. Perhaps more than any other Persian poet, it is Hafiz who most fully accesses the mystical, healing dimensions of poetry, earning him the name “the tongue of the invisible”
Daniel Ladinsky has made it his life’s work to create modern, inspired translations of the world’s most profound spiritual poetry. In these 60 wild and sweet poems, Hafiz’s voice comes alive across the centuries singing his message of love.
