The Conference of the Birds

<p><strong>â€œThese lofty words are an antidote<br /> for anyone sickened by extremism's poison.â€</strong></p><p>Considered by Rumi to be â€œthe masterâ€ of Sufi mystic poetry, Attar is best known for this epic poem, a magnificent allegorical tale about the soulâ€™s search for meaning. He recounts the perilous journey of the worldâ€™s birds to the faraway peaks of Mount Qaf in search of the mysterious Simorgh, their king. Attarâ€™s beguiling anecdotes and humor intermingle the sublime with the mundane, the spiritual with the worldly, while his poem models the soulâ€™s escape from the mindâ€™s rational embrace.</p><p>Sholeh WolpÃ© re-creates for modern readers the beauty and timeless wisdom of the original Persian, in contemporary English verse and poetic prose.</p>
