Synopsis

The Bustan of Sadi is a collection of poems and stories written by the Persian poet, Sadi. Originally written in the 13th century, this English translation from 1911 includes 125 stories and anecdotes that offer moral and ethical lessons. The tales are often humorous and witty, but also touch on serious topics such as the nature of love, the importance of kindness and generosity, and the dangers of greed and envy. The book is divided into eight chapters, each focused on a different theme, such as the virtues of contentment, the dangers of hypocrisy, and the importance of humility. The Bustan of Sadi is a classic work of Persian literature and remains a popular and influential text to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
