moving and implausible as the first caressing breeze of spring" (New York Times)."
First edition. Octavo. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Signed by the author on the title page. "Mary Oliver's poems are as genuine, moving and implausible as the first caressing breeze of spring" (New York Times).
Mary Oliver was described by The New York Times as "far and away, [America's] best-selling poet." She has won both the Pulitzer Prize in 1984 and the National Book Award in 1992. Oliver's poetry has been called an "indefatigable guide to the natural world, particularly to its lesser-known aspects" (Kumin, 1993). "Visionary as Emerson [ she is] among the few American poets who can describe and transmit ecstasy, while retaining a practical awareness of the world as one of predators and prey," reviewed The Nation. Holly Prado of Los Angeles Times Book Review noted that Oliver's work "touches a vitality in the familiar that invests it with a fresh intensity."
