Being Human" is the third book in the " Staying Alive" poetry trilogy. " Staying Alive" & its sequel " Being Alive" have introduced many thousands of new readers to contemporary poetry. " Being Human" is a companion volume to those two books
- a world poetry anthology offering an even broader international selection of real poems for unreal times. The range of poetry here complements that of the first two anthologies: hundreds of thoughtful & passionate poems about living in the modern world; poems that touch the heart stir the mind & fire the spirit; poems about being human about love & loss fear & longing hurt & wonder. There are more great poems from the 20th century as well as many recent poems of rare imaginative power from the first decade of the 21st century. But this book is also rare in reflecting the concerns of readers from all walks of life. Such has been the appeal of " Staying Alive" & " Being Alive" that many people have written not only to express their appreciation of these books but also to share poems which have been important in their own lives. " Being Human" draws on this highly unusual publishers mailbag including many talismanic personal survival poems suggested by our readers."
