Shams-i Tabrizi turned Rumi into a devotee of music, dance and poetry. Three years after Sham's appearance he vanished. It was this longing for the lost shams that transformed Rumi into one of the world's greatest poets. Interest in his life and times has increased dramatically. For the first time in any European language Chittick has translated the conversations of Rumi and Shams.
