I say page 1 bc I'm still reading the intro. Um? "...no one has yet properly translated Hafiz!' As soon as he said that, I was surprised to hear myself say, 'I can do that!" Yea buddy I'm surprised too. As if it couldn't get worse the next line is "that night, though I did not (and do not) know the Persian language, I wrote my first version of a Hafiz poem, working from a literal English translation." SIR?! Audacity.
