About This Book

A SPIRITUAL FABLE SEVEN YEARS IN THE WRITING ABOUT A BOY WHO EMBARKS ON A REMARKABLE JOURNEY THROUGH PAIN AND LOSS TO TRANSCENDENCE

IN THE TRADITION OF SIDDHARTHA BY HERMANN HESSE COMES A NEW spiritual novel that is a stunning feat of storytelling and imagination. A Poet of the Invisible World follows a boy named Nouri, born in thirteenth-century Persia, with four ears instead of two. Orphaned as an infant, he's taken into a Sufi order, where he meets an assortment of dervishes and is placed upon a path toward spiritual awakening. As he stumbles from one painful experience to the next, he grows into manhood. Each trial he endures shatters another obstacle within—and leads Nouri on toward transcendence.
