Recenzii
'Everyone who reads this collection will be roused: disturbed by the pain, exalted in the zest for joy given by poets'
'An anthology of some of the most emotive lines in literature chosen by 100 famous and admired men'
'Occasionally baffling but mostly illuminating . . . As with all the best anthologies, there is a compelling mixture of the well-known and the obscure'
'[An] eclectic collection of moving poems, chosen by a selection of well-known men . . . Organised chronologically, the poems in this book are preceded by a short explanatory note by the men who selected them. These pieces are probably the most interesting aspect of the book and give what would have been, without a doubt, an interesting poetry anthology anyway, far more substance and credibility . . . This is an interesting book, a perfect gift'
'That's the great thing about a good anthology of poems: you are reminded of old friends and introduced to new ones . . . This is a welcome addition to my shelves and I'll look forward to Poems That Make Woman Cry. I hope they ask me to be in it'
'It really is a fascinating anthology. Finding out what makes particular men emotional is intriguing'
'This book explores the often neglected subject of male emotion through timeless poetry'
'Pure genius . . . what I love most is the proud grasp of emotion as mature and manly'
'A wonderfully powerful and moving experience'
