Klappentext
A beautiful poetry collection that celebrates life's moments of silence.
Silence is hard to find in our modern world of 24 / 7 news and constant messages, but here you will find 100 poems celebrating life's moments of quiet. Organized into ten sections, including Night, Loss & Absence, The Natural World, and Intimacy, these poems span twelve centuries, ranging from Old English works such as Beowulf and The Wanderer to modern poems by Benjamin Zephaniah, Jane Hirshfield, and Sarah O. Adedeji. Famous names--Shakespeare, Keats, Tennyson, and Dickinson--sit alongside lesser-known writers, and each poem is presented in clear, modern language with helpful notes. Whether you want to luxuriate in exquisite stillness, share the speechlessness of loss, laugh at awkward pauses, or rest in wordless companionship, Silence Please has a poem for every kind of quiet.
