A Book Of Luminous Things-An International Anthology of Poetry
We love literature, and we know you do too! If you're looking for individual novels or classroom libraries, click here.
Selected by Nobel Laureate Czeslaw Milosz, an inspiring collection of 300 poems from writers around the world.
Czeslaw Milosz's A Book of Luminous Things—his personal selection of poems from the past and present—is a testament to the stunning varieties of human experience, offered up so that we may see the myriad ways that experience can be shared in words and images. Milosz provides a preface to each of these poems, divided into thematic (and often beguiling) sections, such as “Travel,” “History,” and “The Secret of a Thing,” that make the reading as instructional as it is inspirational and remind us how powerfully poetry can touch our minds and hearts.
