Essential Mir By Anisur, Rahman

This one-of-a-kind collection presents two hundred of Mir''s best verses, meticulously selected and translated by the author, along with critical commentary to help modern readers appreciate the context. The couplets assert humanity as Mir''s first principle, man as his primary concern and poetry as his foundational creed. With an introduction that tells us little-known details about the poet''s life, The Essential Mir will cajole, persuade, impart pleasure and offer company to both general and informed readers.
