Praise for The Mirror of My Heart
"In every respect, The Mirror of My Heart is outstanding. Reading it one discovers a whole tradition of love poetry, epigram and elegy, movingly brought into English... Most important now, this anthology reminds us how much we all share the same joys, the same sorrows." --Michael Dirda, Washington Post "With its subtle, comprehensive history of how female poets have responded to political upheaval throughout the centuries, this work provides readers with a thoughtful and thorough introduction to Persian poetry, and the important role that women have played in shaping it." --Publishers Weekly
