Great selection

I love this book! I really felt I connected to Rumi's ideas and could understand Sufi thought after reading this. I picked up a friend's copy to browse, and found myself completely immersed in it for hours. A really great introduction to Rumi.
Inspirational anthology, beautiful edition

I was given this collection of Rumi's poetry as a gift, and immediately fell in love with it. I have since bought other books of Rumi's work, but this is still my favourite. The selections focus on the main themes in Rumi's writings, and the style of writing of the translation is simple and beautiful. I would recommend it to anyone wanting a personal guide to Sufi thought, and for private reflection. It's a lovely book.
Beautiful selections. Beautifully packaged.

I think this is the nicest gift edition of Rumi poetry that I have seen. The selections are also very thoughtful and arranged under themes. I have given it as a gift to several friends and they loved it.
