Layla and Majnun – The Classic Love Story of Persian Literature

Notify me when the book’s added

Writing nearly 1000 years ago, Nizami captures the lightness of heart that falling in love can bring, the thrill of shared affection, the sorrows of separation, the pains of jealousy and the grief that comes with loss. Nizami inspired rock star, Eric Clapton, to write his song “Layla”.
