Rumi 2018 Wall Calendar: Mystical Sufi Poetry

His illuminating words have inspired countless people throughout history, and today, thanks to the magical translations of Coleman Barks, Rumi's verses are more popular than ever. This exquisite wall calendar pairs Barks's translations with contemporary Persian art by Farah Ossouli.
