Description

mystical weaver, bold reformer, equally adored and despised in his day... He is one of the most commonly quoted poets even now due to the straightforward wisdom of his famous dohas, the short couplets he is known for. But Kabir as a person is still a mystery. This outstanding book follows Kabir through one day, from Daybreak to Midnight. It creates Kabir's fascinating persona against the backdrop of fifteenth-century Banaras, a time that eerily echoes our own turbulent times, by weaving truth, folklore, and poetry into a wonderfully constructed tale. The sparse visuals that precede each part follow Kabir's favourite weaving metaphor, showing how the city's fragile tapestry unravels over the day. An important work of modern literature for both young and old readers, Kabir the Weaver-Poet is exhilarating but gently emotive, incredibly blending high drama with the mesmerising calm of Kabir?s beliefs.
