A Year with Rumi: Daily Readings

Gave as a gift and was informed by recipient that it is a great book to have on the breakfast table for daily inspiration.

Love this book! I’m enjoying reading the poems.

I rated this highly for its wide range of readings that go straight to the intuitive sense; and its artistry. I know that Coleman Barks is an excellent translator. It’s worth complementing these short poems with Barks' translations of Rumi's longer works.

I almost feel that reviewing Rumi is something I am unworthy to do. The introduction by Coleman Banks, who has made it his life work to make Rumi the go-to spiritual poet, is in itself an inspiring piece of writing. And the poems - what to say? Wonderful

Love this little book. A reading a day provides enough food for thought.
