- Synopsis
- In his collectionRisking Everything, Housden addressed love’s many aspects. Now, inDancing with Joy, he assembles 99 poems from 69 poets that celebrate the many colors of joy. Anything can be a catalyst for joy, these poems reveal. For Wislawa Szymborska, the catalyst is a dream; for Robert Bly, being in the company of his ten-year-old son; for Gerald Stern, it is a grapefruit at breakfast; for Billy Collins, a cigarette. Dancing with Joyincludes English and Italian classical and romantic works; early Chinese and Persian verse; and poets from Chile, France, Sweden, Poland, Russia, Turkey, and India, plus a range of contemporary American and English poets. Whether inspiration is what you need, or an affirmation of what is already joyful in life,Dancing with Joyis a welcome treat for Housden’s numerous fans, as well as anyone looking for sheer happiness, marvelously expressed. From the Hardcover edition.
