Thank you for this thread. I started another one recently looking for similar suggestions. For me it was Goran Simic's "From Sarajevo, With Sorrow". I picked it up after a thread recently, and it is the most astoundingly beautiful poetry I've ever read, but also the most depressing. He wrote the poems under candlelight from 1992-1995 in Sarajevo while the city was under siege in the Bosnian war. You understand so much more about the human condition and humanity from reading that.
