SUMMARY:Brad Gooch and Maryam Mortaz | Rumi: Unseen Poems
DESCRIPTION:Join 192 Books to celebrate the release of a collection of never-before-translated poems by the widely beloved medieval Persian poet Rumi. \nRumi (1207-1273) was trained in Sufism–a mystic tradition within Islam–and founded the Sufi order known to us as the Whirling Dervishes\, who use dance and music as part of their spiritual devotion. Rumi’s poetry has long been popular with contemporary Western audiences because of the way it combines the sacred and the sensual\, describing divine love in rapturously human terms. \nBrad Gooch and Maryam Mortaz will read from the collection in both the original Persian and in their new English translations\, and then take questions from the audience.
