    Some poems are really good, but others didn’t resonate with me as much. It’s a mixed bag, but worth exploring.

  4. Piyush Kumar Sah

    Faces of Love is a treasure! The translations are superb, and the poems resonate deeply. Ranjit Lal’s introduction set the stage nicely.

    A fascinating collection. Some poems soared, others fell flat for me. Still, a valuable addition to my poetry collection.

    A beautiful collection, but sometimes the language felt a little too archaic for me. Still, a worthwhile read. Davis did great job.

    A wonderful book! It transported me to another world and made me think deeply about the nature of love. Davis’s work is exceptional.

  10. Nikhil Yadav

    While I appreciate the effort, the poems felt a bit repetitive after a while. Still, a decent introduction to Persian poetry.

  11. Ram Nikunj Sharma

    I struggled with the language and the themes a bit. I think it’s more suited for academics.

  12. Bharat Jaggi

    It’s alright, though not my favorite. It was somewhat difficult to dive into at first, but I enjoyed it on my second try.

  13. Ravi Kumar

    I enjoyed the glimpse into Persian literature, though some of the poems were hard to follow. Overall, a good introduction to these masters.

  14. Amreen Somal

    The book provides a good overview. However, at times I found it difficult to connect with the emotions. I expected more.

  15. Muskan Singh

    Davis’s translations are elegant and accessible. I found myself completely lost in the stories of love and longing. Great book!
