Publisher's Summary

In the tradition of Siddhartha by Hermann Hesse comes a new spiritual novel that is a stunning feat of storytelling and imagination.

A Poet of the Invisible World follows a boy named Nouri, born in 13th-century Persia with four ears instead of two. Orphaned as an infant, he's taken into a Sufi order, where he meets an assortment of dervishes and is placed upon a path toward spiritual awakening. As he stumbles from one painful experience to the next, he grows into manhood. Each trial he endures shatters another obstacle within - and leads Nouri on toward transcendence.

Beautifully written and a nice soft voice

The writting was perfectly descriptive - not too much, not too little. Nourri's life journey reminded me of The Alchemist. Some of the sexual content is controversial, but not over the top. Softly read by Kirby and included nice intonation for the different characters.
