<p><b> An incredible collection of verse by women poets writing in Persian, many translated into English for the first time<br></b><br>From Iran and India, to Afghanistan and Uzbekistan, from princesses and entertainers to anonymous wives and daughters, <i>The Mirror of My Heart </i>displays the extraordinary breadth of women writing in Persian. The 83 poets included in this collection - many translated here for the first time - traverse a thousand years: from Rabe''eh and her surprisingly sensual writing in the ninth century, to the powerful verse of Fatemeh Ekhtesari in the twenty-first.</p>
