Love Poems from God : Twelve Sacred
Voices from the East and West
Book
Description
In this
transcendent collection, Daniel Ladinsky-best known
for his gifted and best-selling translations of the
great Sufi poet Hafiz-brings together the timeless
work of twelve of the world's finest spiritual
writers, six from the East and six from the West.
Once again Ladinsky reveals his talent for creating
inspiring, profound, and playful versions of classic
poems for a modern audience. Rumi's joyous, ecstatic
love poems; St. Francis's loving observations of
nature through the eyes of Catholicism; Kabir's
wild, freeing humor that synthesizes Hindu, Muslim,
and Christian beliefs; St. Teresa's sensual verse;
and the mystical, healing words of Hafiz-these and
other spiritual writers considered to be "conduits
of the divine" make up this rich and luminous
collection of "love poems from God."
