A Book Of Luminous Things: An International Anthology of Poetry

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 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.
