"The Art of Losing "is the first anthology of its kind, delivering
poetry with a purpose. Editor Kevin Young has introduced and

Remembrance, Rituals, Recovery, and Redemption), with poems by some
of our most beloved poets as well as the best of the current
generation of poets, "The Art of Losing" is the ideal gift for a
loved one in a time of need and for use by therapists, ministers,
rabbis, and palliative care workers who tend to those who are
experiencing loss. Among the poets included: Elizabeth Alexander,
