Containing essays by Moyne on both Rumi\u2019s life and Sufism, <i>A Bird In The Garden Of Angels<\/i> is further divided into five sections, one for each of the genres of poetry and prose that Rumi worked in. Some parts of each section have been translated into English for the first time; some of the poems were originally translated by John Moyne and Coleman Barks, but appear in this volume in new versions. You can order the book from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mazdapublisher.com\/BookDetails.aspx?BookID=231\">Mazda Publishers\u2019 website<\/a> or any online bookstore.
