Hafiz is regarded as one of the greatest and best loved poets of Persia, an acknowledged spiritual Master with a playful sense of humor. His writings enjoy an ever growing world wide following among people from all walks of life. As is the case with all great poetry, it has the power to speak directly to the truth of our own experience, and Hafiz is the Master of diving directly into the heart of the human condition and emerging with a fistful of emeralds. He serves up a poetic feast of wit, compassion, and insight, well seasoned with a robust, charming, and often bawdy sense of humor.
