I enjoyed this book tremendously. Hafiz of Shiraz Book One is the beginning of a historical fiction trilogy about Hafiz's life, his friends, his beloved hometown Shiraz and the culture of his time. It is an indispensable aide in understanding the real Hafiz (Shams-ud-din Mohammed) and his beautiful poetry. This book and the other volumes in the trilogy provide meaningful context for appreciating the full depth of Hafiz. It is masterfully written, monumental and an unprecedented work. Finally a real and understandable Hafiz in English. Hafiz of Shiraz 1-3 is the largest and most complete biography in English of Hafiz. Easily understood, there is no better source for understanding Hafiz.Product details
