“One could live a complete life based on the wondrous words of Rumi. But add images and story, and you have more than enough for a lifetime, an overabundance…an excess of wisdom, beauty, and pleasure. This book will be one of the few I take wherever I go.” —Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul and Original Self This richly illustrated collection delivers a fresh and inspiring way to read Rumi’s most intimate poems of love, rage, sadness, joy, and longing. No other edition of Rumi’s poetry combines his singularly passionate words with authentic, rare, and wonderful Sufi and Islamic art. Readers moved by Sappho, Hafiz, Rilke, or by Coleman Barks’ translations of Rumi will relish the beautiful imagery and new translations in this unique volume of some of the finest works by “the most popular poet in America” ( Time magazine).

Reynold Alleyne Nicholson fu un eminente studioso del misticismo islamico e uno dei più grandi poeti persiani, Rumi. Dedicò la sua vita allo studio e alla traduzione di testi sufi dall'arabo, dal persiano e dal turco ottomano all'inglese. Il suo risultato monumentale fu la prima edizione critica in persiano e la prima traduzione completa in inglese del vasto Masnavi di Rumi, corredata da un commento completo. Quest'opera influente è diventata fondamentale per gli studi su Rumi a livello globale ed è stata così apprezzata da essere tradotta in persiano.
