A collection of 300 poems from writers around the world, selected and edited by Nobel laureate Czeslaw MiloszCzesław Miłosz''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. Miłosz 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 ourminds and hearts.
