I'd say it's a pick. It was really interesting to read Jewish love poetry, both towards women and men, and some were truly inspiring. Others on the other hand were too "modern" (or less poetry-style, let's say) for me. The book of course begins with the Song of Songs, which is absolutely stunning, but Jewish love poetry didn't stop there

What a beautiful collection of poems!
Going into this, I was only vaguely familiar with Rumi and his poetry. I was always curious about his work and I‘m happy I finally read it.
I love that the translator gave a ton of context to the poems. The book opens with notes on the transliteration, Rumi‘s life, and on the poems.
