Rumi and Gibran Ali Hussain

This short book, Rumi and Gibran: In Conversation, is a first attempt at engaging these paragons of mystical thought in a dialogue of creative breaths and poetic symphonies. The five sections in this collection, taken directly from Gibran's "The Prophet": love, joy and sorrow, beauty, friendship and farewell, serve as mere traces in an expansive desert where both authors show us how two different times, spaces, languages and religions can meld into harmonious poetic portraits, when weaved by the loving heart of an artist.
