“The way of the heart is revealed with tantalizing gems of wisdom and great clarity. It is the work of a master of the heart, Jalaluddin Rumi.” — One Earth, Great Britain
“Love’s most lyrical expression… Helminski comes to his task with obvious affection and reverence. He is familiar with the cultural and spiritual background and context; thus his translations not only convey the poetry’s intent but its metaphysical nuances as well.” — Colorado Daily
