A Great Book

Being a great lover of Kabir's poetry, I purchased this title some time ago but never bothered to read the introduction all the way through - concentrating on the poems instead. That was a great shame! The long introduction is beautifully and insightfully written and I benefited from having worked though it carefully. Dharwadker, better than most, helps us navigate through what we can and cannot know about this amazing poet. As such, we most definitely benefit from having Dharwadker bring his keen eyes and insight to bear on the subject of Kabir. This title is highly recommended for both the very helpful introduction and the translations.
