“Her compact poems are conversational and teasing, yet their taproots reach deeply into the aquifers of religion, philosophy, and literature . . . Oliver is funny and renegade as she protests cultural vapidity, greed, violence, and environmental decimation and ravishing in her close readings of nature.” —Booklist
“If you’re one of the many, many fans of National Book Award- and Pulitzer-winning poet Mary Oliver, you’ll very much welcome A Thousand Mornings.” —Shelf Awareness
The New York Times Bestselling collection of poems from celebrated poet Mary Oliver
In A Thousand Mornings, Mary Oliver returns to the imagery that has come to define her life’s work, transporting us to the marshland and coastline of her beloved home, Provincetown, Massachusetts. Whether studying the leaves of a tree or mourning her treasured dog Percy, Oliver is open to the teachings contained in the smallest of moments and explores with startling clarity, humor, and kindness the mysteries of our daily experience.

A mixed bag, really
Some good, some bad, a few nursery-rhymey. Insight wise, there are sharper poets out there, but I guess MO has staying power just by being around for so long.

Such beautiful words, beyond the merely spiritual or nature poetry. What a treasure Mary Oliver was. And such a pleasant fall morning to finish this collection.

Mary Oliver’s poetry is easy to read but profound and grounded in nature and everyday life. Highly recommend

Mary Oliver é um daqueles autores que através da sua obra nos faz cair de amores por suas paixôes. Talvez até mais do que seus poemas em si, os objetos aos quais Mary (a chamo assim pois é difÃcil não se sentir Ãntimo depois de todas essas manhãs em companhia da autora) dirige seu olhar encantado, como uma varinha de condão, se transformam de maneira esplêndida: pássaros pousados numa árvore, um jardineiro cuidando das flores, um mar “azul cinza verde lavanda”. Sua poesia é um convite a ver um mundo que, como a autora reconhece, está deixando de existir. Mas que nada nos impede de tentar reconstruÃ-lo.Uma pequena ressalva apenas ao material da capa, que por algum motivo, nessa edição, se arrebitou nas quatro pontas e deixou a mostra alguns traços de plástico, como se submetido ao calor. E isso logo nas primeiras semanas de comprado. Vamos procurar melhorar os materiais da capa, Penguin!
