Von Allem und vom Einen

Rediscover centuries-old inspirations. In his impressive prose work "Of Everything and of One," Rumi, the great mystic of Islam, is presented in a new light: not only as a master of poetry but also as a spiritual teacher, an intellectual authority in the interpretation of the Quran, and as a wise connoisseur of human life's struggles. It is a collection of numerous conversations in which we experience Rumi directly and understand him as a historical figure. "Rumi did not always live on the highest clouds of mystical contemplation. On the contrary, no other Persian poet has observed the people as closely as he did." (Annemarie Schimmel).
