Letters to Another Room

Meer over het boek

This is a beautiful translation of the late Ravil Bukharaev's literary existential masterpiece that seeks to reconcile his Muslim faith with the pursuit of his ideals and his search of self and understanding of life, particularly his notions of "authenticity," which although conflicted by it as a person and human being it is what framed his world view. He was a celebrated writer, poet, and scholar of religious, cultural, and political history of his native Tatarstan and author of some thirty books, including Islam in Russia: The Four Seasons and (with the poet Fred Beake) The Story of Joseph.
