Mirror Of Dew The Poetry Of Lamtj Zhle Qemmaqmi, by A. A. Seyed-Gohrab, is a Persian poetry collection from Iran, translated by Asghar Seyed-Gohrab, published by Harvard University, Center for Hellenic Studi in 2014. It is a Persian classical-poetry volume where lyric delicacy and scholarly recovery sit close together. Its attraction is the way a historical voice can arrive as dew, reflection, and pressure rather than as a museum object. I would read it first for the pressure of the translated line rather than as a puzzle waiting for its correct answer. The best version of a description for a book like this should give the reader a door, not a lecture: a little context, then permission to meet the poem through image, cadence, and affect. For this library, the book matters as more than a representative entry from Iran. It shows how poetry in translation can carry local weather, private intensity, and literary history into English without becoming merely informational.
If you’d like to see international poetry continue and gain traction, consider requesting this work from your local library, or purchasing it from places like Open Books (a poetry only bookstore), Asterism Books (an independent press distributor), or bookshop.org to connect you with your local bookstores.
