Adam's Wish
Adam's Wish compiled by John S. Hatcher and Amrollah Hemmat
This book makes available previously unpublished poems by the renowned nineteenth-centry poetess Tahirih.
Until now, many of these poems were thought to be lost, and others remained untranslated and largely unknown to the general public. They are provided here both in their original calligraphy and in English. Many of the poems relate to Tahirih's spiritual beliefs. She often refers to Adam, the first Prophet of God, and to the Prophets of the past to reveal her insights into the process by which God empowers His Messengers to educate humanity.
