Rumi - the 13th-century Persian mystic who has become America's most widely read poet - calls us to join him in exploring love, both human and divine, with all its ecstasy, suffering, and beauty. These verses draw on two of the richest symbols in his Sufi tradition: the rose, evoking state of visionary ecstasy, and the rose garden, embracing all the world's glories. Renowned scholar Andrew Harvey and award-winning photographer Lekha Singh pair original translations with sumptuous color images to bring Rumi's transcendent writings to life. 112 pp.
