«Le langage des oiseaux» is the allegorical tale by Farîd-ud-dîn 'Attar, Persian mystic, published by Albin Michel in paperback (342 pages, in French).
The birds of the world gather to undertake a journey in search of the Simorgh, their legendary king, guided by the hoopoe. Crossing symbolic valleys —desire, love, unity— represents the stripping away of attachments and fears; the tale becomes an allegory of the spiritual path toward self-knowledge.
Le langage des oiseaux belongs to the 'Spiritualités vivantes' collection (no. 137) from Albin Michel.
This work is recommended reading for those interested in Sufism, Islamic mysticism, and classical Persian poetry.
