"A really beautiful book" of poems that delve into-and help us transcend-suffering, loss, fear, and loneliness, by the author of How to Read a Poem (The Boston Globe).Implicit in poetry is the idea that we are enriched by heartbreaks, by the recognition and understanding of suffering-not just our own suffering but also the pain of others. We are not so much diminished as enlarged by grief, by our refusal to vanish, or to let others vanish, without leaving a record. And poets are people who are determined to leave a trace in words, to transform oceanic depths of feeling into art that speaks to others.In 100 Poems to Break Your Heart, Edward Hirsch-prize-winning poet, critic, and author of How to Read a Poem-selects 100 poems, from the nineteenth century to the present, and illuminates them, unpacking context and references to help the reader fully experience the range of emotion and wisdom within them."Darkly illuminating." -Booklist (starred review)"These 100 poems will indeed break hearts, but they also offer examples of resilience, the lasting impact of words, and a wisdom that a reader can return to and share." -New York Journal of Books
