A Cry from the Depths of Silence: Poems by Mohammad Reza Saadi (Kheyrati)

'We need a kind of music to articulate what we feel; and Mohammad Reza's sensitivity as a musician strongly informs his poetry.' TONY BOWLANDWritten in Farsi and presented in English translation, this moving collection of poetry draws on the rich traditions of Persian literature while speaking to contemporary readers across cultures and generations.Born in Shiraz, Iran, Mohammad Reza Saadi combines the influence of classical Persian poetry with the musical sensibility of the ney, the traditional Persian reed flute.
