Poems That Make Grown Men Cry By Anthony Holden & Ben Holden

Product Sku:45150026;Color Code:

Grown men have oft been told they’re not supposed to cry, yet in this fascinating anthology, 100 of them - all familiar names like actor Daniel Radcliffe and musician Nick Cave to comedian Stephen Fry and the late author Christopher Hitchens - confess to being moved to tears by poem. Their selections include classics by the likes of Walt Whitman, Mary Oliver, W.H. Auden, Pablo Neruda, Gwendolyn Brooks + Philip Larkin as well as modern works by authors like Billy Collins, Seamus Heaney + Derek Walcott, Themes range from everything from love in its many guises to mortality and loss to the beauty and variety of nature. “Everyone who reads this collection will be roused: disturbed by the pain, exalted in the zest for joy given by poet,” said Nadine Gordimer, winner of the Nobel Prize for literature. We’d take it from her! Paperback; 2015, Simon & Schuster.
