THE PROPHET, THE GARDEN OF THE PROPHET, THE RUBAIYAT OF OMAR KHAYYAM

After listening to these classics of Eastern literature and philosophy, one senses they're in their original form, that is, the oral form. This is a superb way to get to know these writings. Gibran's mystical drawings are missing, but listeners can conjure their own. Garard Green has the perfect voice to capture the richness of the imagery and the subtlety of meaning. With matchless cadence, his rich, rolling tones enunciate and elucidate the prose. His voice moves the listener, alternating power and humanity. Use this program in the study of the Rubaiyat or just for listening pleasure though lack of indexing and precise cueing may cause some frustration.
