Who has not suffered grief? In Mourning Songs, the brilliant poet and editor Grace Schulman has gathered together the most moving poems about sorrow by the likes of Elizabeth Bishop, William Carlos Williams, Gwendolyn Brooks, Neruda, Catullus, Dylan Thomas, W. H. Auden, Shakespeare, Emily Dickinson, W. S. Merwin, Lorca, Denise Levertov, Keats, Hart Crane, Michael Palmer, Robert Frost, Hopkins, Hardy, Bei Dao, and Czeslaw Milosz, to name only some of the masters in this slim volume. 'The poems in this collection,' as Schulman notes in her introduction, 'sing of grief as they praise life.' She notes: 'As any bereaved survivor knows, there is no consolation. 'Time doesn't heal grief; it emphasizes it,' wrote Marianne Moore. The loss of a loved one never leaves us. We don't want it to. In grief, one remembers the beloved. But running beside it, parallel to it, is the joy of existence, the love that causes pain of loss, the loss that enlarges us with the wonder of existence'"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a "A New Directions paperbook original." 650 0 $a Death $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Bereavement $v Poetry. 650 0 $a Grief $v Poetry. 650 7 $a Bereavement. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00830665 650 7 $a Death. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00888613 650 7 $a Grief. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00947883 655 7 $a Poetry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423828 700 1 $a Schulman, Grace, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20190806074012.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0D981EB69C8F11E981649E3E97128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
