Divan Of Hafiz

English Version by Paul Smith

This is the only complete, modern, poetic version of his book of 791 poems. The spiritual content is here in plain English; also the form: the correct rhyme-structure has been achieved for the first time. In the Introduction his life story is told in great detail. His spirituality is explored, his influence on the East and the West, the form and function of his poetry and the use of his book as a guide etc. Included are notes to his poems, a glossary and bibliography and index. First published in a two-volume hardback limited edition in 1986 the book quickly went out of print. Copies now fetch over $200 U.S. on the net.
