It makes a fascinating introduction to a literature that is little known in the West, and incidentally provides insight into a vanished and extraordinary way of life. Davis's prodigious scholarship of Persian poetry has enabled him to select a wide range of poems, from both famous and little-known poets. Davis has maintained exceptional faithfulness to the original Persian while recasting the poems' grace and drive in English. The book also contains a lucid and entertaining introduction, and informative notes on each of the sixty-eight poets whose work is included. Each poem is faced by the text in delicate Persian nasta'liq calligraphy by Amir Hossein Tabnak.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mage Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47613874045079,"sku":"9780934211383","price":2087.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780934211383.webp?v=1775088556","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/borrowed-ware-medieval-persian-epigrams-9780934211383","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
