Poems set in Italy, Egypt, and Paris, reflecting on the varying cultures, and relating to contemporary life; more personal poems leading into a sequence, ‘Tavern of Ruin’, which, for a Sufi, is like training in a divine university. As Dr Javad Nurbakhsh puts it - ‘Before a perfect being enters the 'Tavern of Ruin’, he or she can be defined. However, upon entering the Truth, such a being is indefinable, beyond the realm of words’ (‘In The Tavern Of Ruins: Seven Essays On Sufism’). The other starting point is George Meredith’s, Modern Love’.
