Description

With his translation of The Qur'an, Kader Abdolah makes the Islamic Holy Book accessible to non-Arabic readers. His source material was his father's old Arabic Qur'an. The Qur'an does not have a strictly logical structure; the 114 suras branch out like trees and with his unique translation, Abdolah guides his reader through the gardens of the Qur'an.
