{"product_id":"9780143430674","title":"The Captured Gazelle","description":"Every moment it seeks to slip from the mind's nook\u003cbr\u003e Fresh poetic meaning is a gazelle to be captured\u003cbr\u003e The Captured Gazelle is an elegant and lucent translation of the poems of the seventeenth-century Persian poet Mulla Tahir Ghani, better known as Ghani Kashmiri. Eulogized by poets such as Mir and Iqbal, Ghani is an outstanding representative of sabk-e-Hindi or the 'Indian style' in Persian poetry, which became a hallmark of the Mughal-Safavid literary culture.\u003cbr\u003e The introduction situates Ghani against his unique background in which Iranian and Indian poetic cultures came together to create a glorious literary age in Kashmir, while the translations capture Ghani in his wide spectrum of moods-satirical, playful, self-pitying, pessimistic, mystically resigned-bringing alive his wit and ingenuity in a modern idiom without losing hold on the tone.","brand":"Repro Knowledgcast Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50021731762416,"sku":"9780143430674","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780143430674_p0.jpg?v=1784231831","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780143430674","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
