Quarreling with God: Mystic Rebel Poems of the Dervishes of Turkey
Translated and compiled by Jennifer Ferraro with Latif Bolat
“Here are the unheard voices of the mystical poets of the Turkish Bektashi tradition, a tradition that influenced Jelaluddin Rumi and that also remains one of the most vibrant, independent and passionate in living Sufism today. In clear and elegant translations, the authors unleash the wild voices of these mystics for us, as they sing about love, relationship and the purpose of life.”
Neil Douglass-Klotz, PhD, author of Desert Wisdom: Sacred Middle Eastern Writings from Goddess through the Sufis.
“We are truly grateful to Latif Bolat and Jennifer Ferraro for offering us a rare glimpse into the universe of Anatolian Sufi poetry. For from the universe of the Heart we are given a fresh perspective on our human life here. It is a joy to be n the company of the friends of the Friend. Their songs resonate through the centuries.”
Kabir Helminski, Sufi Shaikh, translator of Living Presence: A Sufi Way to Mindfulness and the Essential Self.
