Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Sacred poetry from twelve mystics and saints, rendered brilliantly by Daniel Ladinsky, beloved interpreter of verses by the fourteenth-century Persian poet Hafiz
One of 6 Books Oprah Loves to Give as Gifts During the Holidays
All kinds of beautiful poetry. Hoda Kotb
In this luminous collection, Daniel Ladinsky best known for his bestselling interpretations of the great Sufi poet Hafiz brings together the timeless work of twelve of the world s finest spiritual writers, six from the East and six from the West. Once again, Ladinsky reveals his talent for creating profound and playful renditions of classic poems for a modern audience.
Rumi s joyous, ecstatic love poems; St. Francis s loving observations of nature through the eyes of Catholicism; Kabir s wild, freeing humor that synthesizes Hindu, Muslim, and Christian beliefs; St. Teresa s sensual verse; and the mystical, healing words of Sufi poet Hafiz these along with inspiring works by Rabia, Meister Eckhart, St. Thomas Aquinas, Mira, St. Catherine of Siena, St. Teresa of Avila, St. John of the Cross, and Tukaram are all love poems by God from writers considered conduits of the divine. Together, they form a spiritual treasure to cherish always.
Praise for Daniel Ladinsky s renderings

There are universes inside Hafiz, a lineage of masters. Daniel Ladinsky follows the playfulness; the rascal moves well. Coleman Barks
