Perfume of the Unwritten

By Walid Lounes Bouzerar

A 33-piece collection of poetry contemplating Allah's glorious creations and the Way. Authored by Walid Loun s Bouzerar. Foreword by H.E. Shaykh Nour Hisham Kabbani. * * * "Poetry is ultimately not about rhyme and meter. Islamic languages connect the word for poetry to the root of "consciousness." Poetry is ultimately about an aesthetic, cultivating a "taste" for seeing the extraordinary in the ordinary. It is having language become perfumed by that sense of the sacred, of beauty, and having the silences between words be further openings towards that which is experienced but transcends words. The poetry collection of Walid Loun s Bouzerar taps into so many of the beautiful resonant symbols of the Islamic universe, from People of the Cave to oceans and rose petals, and recasts them into poetry suitable for contemporary tastes. Recommended for spiritual seekers of every age " - Dr. Omid Safi Director, Duke Islamic Studies Center
