A wonderful book which provides a glimpse in to the fascinating world of Rumi's Masnevi. The writer selected the roses which are understandable and implementable by common readers.

Picked this up while visiting Konya, where Mevlana (Rumi) lived, loved, and wrote. There were a few gems, or rather "roses," in this collection but some of the wording was so strange and distracting that I'm not sure what the translator was going for. I'm hoping another translator may offer something a bit clearer?
