Description
The Story of Layla and Majnun is a story of love and devotion, as retold by twelfth-century poet Nizami. In this beautifully translated work, the poet reshapes the legend of Majnun, the quintessential romantic fool, into a story of the ideal lover, an allegory of the soul's search for God.
Translated into English, this poetic masterpiece offers a unique insight into the Sufi tradition and the human search for meaning. The book includes a final chapter translated especially for this edition, providing a new perspective on this ancient legend.
With its rich and evocative language, The Story of Layla and Majnun is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in Persian literature, Sufism, or the human experience.
