A masterpiece of Persian literature Written in the twelfth century, The Canticle of the Birds is the poetic expression of a universal initiatory quest, that for Love, Truth and Unity. The journey of the birds beyond the seven valleys to meet Simorgh, the legendary bird and allegory of the Supreme Being, symbolises the voyage of every human soul. Éditions Diane de Selliers - 19, rue Bonaparte - 75006 Paris
