Some great info. Not-great on the delivery.

But as a fellow lover (dare I say student) of Rumi, I appreciate the writer's devotion to the man.

3 stars.

Reveals the glint of gold underneath the fluff

A succinct distillation into a biographical memoir that celebrates and honors the unique genius of Rumi and shatters the myths that too often obscure his (and Shams) greatness with their very real human frailties.

Shahram Shiva expresses very blasphemous and strange statements. He claims that Jesus is his brother and that Rumi is his mentor. I am not sure how literal this is meant to be taken, but this is disrespectful. His book, "RUMI'S UNTOD STORY" is inaccurate. the author exclaims that only he knows what happened between Rumi and Shams but this is not true, we have a myriad of information about their lives trajectory. It is a bad book with nonsensical, inaccurate, and false statements. He just wants people to buy his shows tickets.
