Synopsis

My learned readers, you know that there are stories even before there are stories, but some stories are bound by fate. On his way from Tangiers to China, the medieval Moorish traveller Ibn Battuta arrives in Konya, Turkey where the legendary dervish Rumi had lived, danced and died. More than half a century may have passed since his death, but this poetry remains alive, inscribed in every stone and tree and pathway. Rumi's followers entrust Ibn Battuta with a manuscript of his life stories to spread work of the mystic on his travels.
