In a world that rarely pauses, take a moment to give yourself some emotional fuel: 98 poems that uplift, challenge, and delight. This joyfully idiosyncratic collection includes timeless classics (Kipling's If, Henley's Invictus, Tennyson's Ulysses) along with far less famous gems such as One Good Thing (a wonderful poem for reading to a child at bedtime), and new translations of poems by Victor Hugo, Constantine Cavafy, and Catullus. The poems are organized loosely by topic: Inspiration, Art & Beauty, Work & Leisure, Courage & Perseverance, Family, Country, Nature, Travel, Truth & Knowledge, and Love, Loss, & Recovery. Fifty-six illustrations ranging from Rubens to N.C. Wyeth to 21st-century photographs complement the text.
If you crave beauty with purpose and inspiration with depth, why not rediscover the adventure and delight of poetry? This anthology is perfect for sharing with children, friends, and significant others - or for memorizing so you can always have a supply of emotional fuel at hand.
