Description: "More than any other Persian poet, it is perhaps Hafiz who accesses the mystical, healing dimensions of poetry."--BOOK JACKET.

"With this collection of 250 of Hafiz's most intimate poems, Daniel Ladinsky has succeeded in capturing the essence of one of Islam's greatest poetic and religious voices. Each line of The Gift imparts the wonderful qualities of this spiritual teacher: an audacious love that empowers lives, profound knowledge, wild generosity, and a sweet, playful genius unparalleled in world literature."--BOOK JACKET.
