Book excerpt: The selected adventures of Persia's Hercules, from Iran's great national epic No understanding of world mythology is complete without acquaintance with Rostam, Iran's most celebrated mythological hero. According to the Shahnameh (the tenth-century Book of Kings), this titan, magnificent in strength and courage, bestrode Persia for 500 years. While he often served fickle kings - undergoing many trials of combat, cunning, and endurance - he was never their servant and owed allegiance only to his nation's greater good. Anyone interested in folklore, world literature, or Iranian culture will find Rostam both a rousing and illuminating read.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'In the breath that I die, for you I'll be longing/ Wishing to turn into the dust of your belonging' - Sa'di, Expressions of Love. With poetry which speaks across the ages, Sa'di (1210-1281) is a vital classical poet and a towering figure of the medieval Persian canon. Comparable in skill and stature to other Persian poets such as Ferdowsi, Hafez, Rumi and Omar Khayyam, Sa'di's verses--best known through his 'Bustan' and 'Golestan' address universal themes of passion, love and the human condition in works which are both psychologically perceptive and beautifully crafted. His mystical writings, contemporaneous with Rumi, reveal a degree of depth, wisdom and insight which have placed Sa'di in the pantheon of world literature. In this essential new translation of Sa'di's work, leading expert on Iranian studies Homa Katouzian seeks to bring the poet's lyrics to a new readership. The book provides the Persian text and Katouzian's English translation side-by-side, creating an indispensible tool for students and enthusiasts of Iranian history, literature and culture.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shams al-Din Mohammad Hafez is in love. He is in love with a girl, with a city, and with Persian poetry. Despite his enmity with the new and dangerous city leader, the jealousy of his fellow court poets, and the competition for his beloved, Iran’s favorite poet remains unbothered. When his wit and charm are not enough to keep him safe in Shiraz, his friends conspire to keep him out of trouble. But their schemes are unsuccessful. Nothing will chase Hafez from this city of wine and roses. In Pezeshkzad’s fictional account, Hafez’s life in fourteenth-century Shiraz is a mix of peril and humor. Set in a city that is at once beautiful and cutthroat, the novel includes a cast of historical figures to illuminate this elusive poet of the Persian literary tradition. Shabani-Jadidi and Higgins’s translation brings the beloved poetry of Hafez alive for an English audience and reacquaints readers with the comic wit and original storytelling of Pezeshkzad.

Book excerpt: Young, eager, adventurous, and willing to accept God's commission, Frank and Florence Oster began their married life by setting off to Persia, the land of the Queen Esther. Frank Oster and one of his classmates had been the first resident Adventist missionaries in that country. Following his marriage, Frank took his bride back to his field of labor. These young people went with the intent that this would be their place of labor until the Lord came. Whatever the Lord had for them to do, they determined to do His bidding. "Inshallah" (if God wills it) became their motto. You'll laugh and cry as you read the story about their introduction to the culture and customs of Persia; terror caused by Kurdish raids; the young couple's mission endevors; the birth of their first child and, not long after, the death of the little one. You'll feel the joys and sorrows experienced in the home as three little boys were born to them. You'll anticipate with them the furlough, when at long last they were told they could return home for a visit. You'll wonder how they could feel so deeply about leaving Persia to go to Turkey, but that is all a part of the story--thirty-five years of mission service! Was the burden too great? The price too high? A thousand times No, say those of the family who still remain. The story has not ended with the writing of this book. One of the sons, Kenneth Oster, and his wife, Dorothy Nelson Oster, have gone on to achieve their own mission record of thirty-two years in the Middle East. Dr. Kenneth has used his lifetime acquaintance with the local languages and culture to cultivate a new approaches to the Moslem world. The results of the dedicated work and lives of this family will be fully known only in the kingdom to come.

Book excerpt: Why did no one ever tell me that if it's true love, you shouldn't have to work so f*cking hard for it? Persia is about to turn 30. Having been a walking, talking, dating disaster for most of her adult life, she's finally had enough of the drama of chasing emotionally unavailable commitment-phobes. After an excruciating break-up, Persia is taken on a journey around the world (but also inward) to discover the real cause of her romantic misery: her relationship with herself. Divided into 3 parts, Heal, Attract and Commit, this pioneering teaching memoir will have you laughing, crying and cringing in recognition. Expect profound insights, powerful tips and daringly vulnerable personal stories. 'It took me ten long and painful years to learn what Persia has managed to put in this one book with such raw honesty, wisdom and most importantly, vulnerability.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Rafie Hamidpour has taught at the college level, compiled twelve books, sixty publications, and has received nine certificates of registration from the Library of Congress. He also holds several patent registrations in the U.S. and Canada. But the greatest of all his accomplishments are the relationships with his family and friends. After living in the United States for the past twenty-nine years, the author’s understanding of the American people and culture inspired his previous four books in the series Persia with Love: The Land; Persia with Love: The Events; Persia with Love: Cultures, Tradition, Language; and Persia with Love: The Scholars. This account of Persian history is dedicated to the Persian people willing to sacrifice their own comfort for the greater good of their family and loved ones. Throughout history, the strength of mankind has been emphasized through collective culture. A collective mindset and lifestyle has evolved societies to place greater emphasis on humanity, and less on monetary value. Since the age of industry, many of these concepts have been forgotten as people strive for a different type of success. Money, property, and material possessions have replaced the seemingly obsolescent barometers of the past. The change has come from the focus of these intentions and the source of these desires. Hope lies in the occurrence of the infrequently documented random acts of kindness that members of society take, when acts benefit the doer more than the receiver. These are the ones who authenticate the human morals and ideas that mankind once thrived on and implemented.

Book excerpt: THE INNER FIX is a unique and practical step-by-step programme to help you dramatically improve your relationships, feel more confident and satisfied with your work, confront your financial blocks and become the best version of yourself - both inside and out. With our lives being overrun by social media and celebrity culture, being twenty-something has become pretty complicated. Wanting things we can't afford, finding ourselves stuck in a job we don't enjoy, or still living at home with mum and dad, we reach for things to try to perk us up (sex, booze and drugs) - but eventually, they turn out to be the very things that bring us down. Having been caught in a cycle of self-destructive behaviour and come out the other side, Persia and Joey - friends, life coaches and founders of Addictive Daughter - colourfully chart their lives from childhood insecurities to adolescent obsessions. With tools and exercises to work through at your own pace, THE INNER FIX is guaranteed to teach you how to stop worrying and start living.

Book excerpt: The adventures of Samak, a trickster-warrior hero of Persia’s thousand-year-old oral storytelling tradition, are beloved in Iran. Samak is an ayyar, a warrior who comes from the common people and embodies the ideals of loyalty, selflessness, and honor—a figure that recalls samurai, ronin, and knights yet is distinctive to Persian legend. His exploits—set against an epic background of palace intrigue, battlefield heroics, and star-crossed romance between a noble prince and princess—are as deeply rooted in Persian culture as are the stories of Robin Hood and King Arthur in the West. However, this majestic tale has remained little known outside Iran. Translated from the original Persian by Freydoon Rassouli and adapted by Prince of Persia creator Jordan Mechner, this timeless masterwork can now be enjoyed by English-speaking readers. A thrilling and suspenseful saga, Samak the Ayyar also offers a vivid portrait of Persia a thousand years ago. Within an epic quest narrative teeming with action and supernatural forces, it sheds light on the lives of ordinary people and their social worlds. This is the first complete English-language version of a treasure of world culture. The translation is grounded in the twelfth-century Persian text while paying homage to the dynamic culture of storytelling from which it arose.

Book excerpt: A biography of the Sufi poet that’s “a dazzling feat of scholarship . . . the book restores Rumi to the glories and hardships of his momentous age” (The Washington Post). Ecstatic love poems of Rumi, a Persian poet and Sufi mystic born over eight centuries ago, are beloved by millions of readers in America as well as around the world. He has been compared to Shakespeare for his outpouring of creativity and to Saint Francis of Assisi for his spiritual wisdom. Yet his life has long remained the stuff of legend rather than intimate knowledge. In this breakthrough biography, New York Times–bestselling author Brad Gooch brilliantly brings to life the man and puts a face to the name Rumi, vividly coloring in his time and place—a world as rife with conflict as our own. The map of Rumi’s life stretched over 2,500 miles. Gooch traces this epic journey from Central Asia, where Rumi was born in 1207, traveling with his family, displaced by Mongol terror, to settle in Konya, Turkey. Pivotal was the disruptive appearance of Shams of Tabriz, who taught him to whirl and transformed him from a respectable Muslim preacher into a poet and mystic. Their vital connection as teacher and pupil, friend and beloved, is one of the world’s greatest spiritual love stories. When Shams disappeared, Rumi coped with the pain of separation by composing joyous poems of reunion, both human and divine. Ambitious, bold, and beautifully written, Rumi’s Secret reveals the unfolding of Rumi’s devotion to a “religion of love,” remarkable in his own time and made even more relevant for the twenty-first century by this compelling account.
