The author of this book is not a writer, not a poet; it is enough to say about him that he is a human being, that is, a man who tried to chant everlasting sweet sorrows, a man who loved life but only through his great love of Dahesh." This quotation cited from the author's Preface to his book draws for us a clear picture of the whole book. This volume is in the form of prose poems or cantos in which the author addresses his well-beloved Guide, Dr. Dahesh. These cantos are suffused with the fragrance of dreams and shades as well as marked with deep intensity of the feelings of love and longing. The reader would be captivated by the profusion of imagery and its hauntingly rhythmical beauty.
The book has been rendered from French into Arabic by the Poet. Mussa Al-Maalouf.
