The contents are highly interesting for everyone
who wants to understand Persian and Persianate poetical symbolism…
themes are explained in their symbolic, religious sense and they are
illustrated by numerous verses from the works of the great mystical
masters of Iran. As for the translation of the verses... they are fair
enough and certainly better than most English versions of Oriental poetry.
