How closely meshed

Very nice feature (and cover photo) of professor emeritus of English at UGA and very dear friend of the blog Coleman Barks in our local alt. weekly, Flagpole

The article focuses on one of his recent collections of poetry, Hummingbird Sleep. But few contemporary poets have had the impact of Barks' work on the world. He has made the words of love and wisdom from the 13th Sufi mystic Jalal al-Din Rumi accesible to millions of English speakers and readers.

Good job, Flagpole. Great work, Coleman.
