A year with the sensual, mysterious, and deeply spiritual poetry of Rumi, in a translation featuring 15 poems never before published

"The poetry feels like it belongs to all. When Rumi died in 1273, members of all religions came to the funeral. Wherever you stand, his words deepen your connection to the mystery of being alive."

Through Coleman Barks's translations, Rumi is the world's most popular poet. The newest addition to HarperSanFrancisco's "A Year With" series, A Year with Rumi brings together 365 of Coleman's mystical, elegant, and beautiful translations of Rumi's poetry, for reading, reflection, and embarking upon your own journey inward.

      Barks, himself a poet, is one of the great contemporary popularizers of the 13th-century Sufi mystic poet Rumi, now certainly jockeying with Rilke for top position as the people's poet. Rumi's verse speaks ecstatically of the love of God; he eludes easy categorization, which is doubtless why he appeals to so many both in the Islamic world and in the West. These translations are not new but are newly disposed to fit a calendar year, and the intensity and strange majesty of Rumi is not thereby diminished.
