of CzesĆaw MiĆosz (Editor)
Description
"A collection of 300 poems from writers around the world, selected and edited by Nobel laureate Czeslaw Milosz CzesĆaw MiĆosz's A Book of Luminous Thingsâhis personal selection of poems from the past and presentâis 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. MiĆosz provides a preface to each of these poems, divided into thematic (and often beguiling) sections, such as âTravel,â âHistory,â and âThe Secret of a Thing,â that make the reading as instructional as it is inspirational and remind us how powerfully poetry can touch our minds and hearts.
