The ecstatic poetry of Jelaluddin Rumi is more popular today than ever and Coleman Barks, his preeminent translator, has expressed Rumi's message in the best-selling "The Essential Rumi" (75,000 copies sold), in frequent concert performances and on television, when Barks was profiled last year on a Bill Moyers PBS special. Barks now joins Michael Green, the critically-acclaimed author and illustrator of "Zen and the Art of the Macintosh" (200,000 copies sold) in a magical mystery tour interweaving Rumi's most stunning poems--including many new translations--with original visual interpretations in the illuminated tradition, as well as Bark's own commentary and musings on the poems and Rumi's current relevance.

Rumi's passionate, playful poems chronicle the journey through life, offering insights into the meaning of existence and the individual's search for enlightenment. To complement and enrich these evocative translations, Green has created artwork that combines typography, original art, copies of old masters, photographs and prints in visual masterpieces. A remarkable collaboration, "The Illuminated Rumi" is a wonderful guide to Rumi's teachings and a treasury of visual delights.

About Jalal al-Din Rumi

Jalal al-Din Rumi (1207–1273) was a Persian-language poet, Islamic scholar, and Sufi mystic born in Balkh, in present-day Afghanistan. After his family fled the Mongol advance, he settled in Konya, in present-day Turkey, where he taught and gathered disciples; the Mevlevi order of whirling dervishes was established there in his name after his death. His major works include the Masnavi, a six-volume didactic poem, and the Divan-e Shams-e Tabrizi, a collection of lyrics named for his teacher Shams. His poetry has been translated into dozens of languages and circulates widely worldwide.
