Poems That Make Grown Men Cry: 100 Men on the Words That Move Them by Anthony Holden, Ben Holden

5.0

I'm not sure there has even been a book so compelling or real. It was honest, fun, and intelligent. Poetry has always been one of those things that people either love or hate. I go between the two frequently, but usually find myself in the camp that says "poetry is no big deal." However, these poems were a big deal. The rationale behind the selection, the candid honesty from the lives of a stranger, the ability to admit that grown men cry all made this collection of poems unlike any other I've come across. This is a book that will follow me for quite some time.
