Summary
"In this, her first book, Leslie Wines writes with keen observation and historical candor of both the spiritual and social tapestry of Rumi's world. Not afraid to tackle a difficult and often elusive subject, through sharp prose and quick pen strokes Wines soon has Rumi emerging as a comprehensive human being and a testament to the capacity, resilience and transcendence of the human spirit - as equally illuminating in our own highly secular age as he was in his medieval Islamic times."--BOOK JACKET.
