A Thousand Mornings<br />

Poems<br />

Mary Oliver<br />

In A Thousand Mornings, Mary Oliver returns to the<br />

imagery that has come to define her life’s work, transporting<br />

us to the marshland and coastline of her beloved<br />

home, Provincetown, Massachusetts. Whether studying<br />

the leaves of a tree or mourning her treasured dog Percy,<br />

Oliver is open to the teachings contained in the smallest of<br />

moments and explores with startling clarity, humor, and<br />

kindness the mysteries of our daily experience.<br />

MaRy oliveR published her first book<br />

of poetry in 1963 and since then has received<br />

numerous awards, including the Pulitzer Prize<br />

for Poetry for her book American Primitive.<br />

She lives in Provincetown, Massachusetts.<br />

Praise for Mary Oliver:<br />

“ One of our very best poets . . .<br />

Although few poets have fewer human<br />

beings in their poems than Mary Oliver, it is<br />

ironic that few poets also go so far to help us<br />

forward.” —The New York Times Book Re<strong>view</strong><br />

“ She teaches us the profound act of paying<br />

attention—a living wonder that makes it<br />

possible to appreciate all the others.”<br />

—The Boston Globe<br />
