I have been looking for books like this addressing main themes of major belief systems for decades. In a perfect scenario, we could read a detailed and expertly translated address of the Bible, the Quran, the Torah, Bhagavad Gita, and others but often we are left with academic "project" translations that do not captivate the messages in the way they were intended.

This book rises above the others in that time was taken to write this in a way that was inspired by the poetry of the original text. Most religious texts originally were written beautifully, with their meaning hidden under layers and layers of subtext that I feel has been mostly lost over time, and reading this felt like I was reading a love letter to the original by someone who found meaning in its pages.

Some issues with blackout boxes in some areas of the kindle version, and some errors in mechanics/editing like the use of "psychical" instead of psychological, but overall that did not affect my enjoyment of the read and I thought it was worth reading and even rereading.

A really interesting book that I learned a lot from. Very accessible, whilst keeping true to the spirit of the Qur'an.
