A New York Times Bestseller, chosen as Oprah's "Books That Help Me
Through" for Oprah's Book Club "No matter where one starts reading,
Devotions offers much to love, from Oliver's exuberant dog poems to
selections from the Pulitzer Prize-winning American Primitive, and
Dream Work, one of her exceptional collections. Perhaps more
important, the luminous writing provides respite from our crazy
world and demonstrates how mindfulness can define and transform a
life, moment by moment, poem by poem." -The Washington Post "It's
as if the poet herself has sidled beside the reader and pointed us
to the poems she considers most worthy of deep consideration."
-Chicago Tribune Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Mary Oliver presents a
personal selection of her best work in this definitive collection
spanning more than five decades of her esteemed literary career.
Throughout her celebrated career, Mary Oliver has touched countless
readers with her brilliantly crafted verse, expounding on her love
for the physical world and the powerful bonds between all living
things. Identified as "far and away, this country's best selling
poet" by Dwight Garner, she now returns with a stunning and
definitive collection of her writing from the last fifty years.
Carefully curated, these 200 plus poems feature Oliver's work from
her very first book of poetry, No Voyage and Other Poems, published
in 1963 at the age of 28, through her most recent collection,
Felicity, published in 2015. This timeless volume, arranged by
Oliver herself, showcases the beloved poet at her edifying best.
Within these pages, she provides us with an extraordinary and
invaluable collection of her passionate, perceptive, and
much-treasured observations of the natural world.
