About A Thousand Mornings: Poems by Mary Oliver

Mary Oliver’s poems in A Thousand Mornings return to the natural imagery associated with her work, including the marshland and coastline of Provincetown, Massachusetts. Close observation of the everyday—down to the leaves of a tree—opens onto reflections on the mysteries of daily experience.

The collection also includes mourning for Oliver’s dog Percy. Readers drawn to attentive nature poetry and thoughtful, clear-eyed reflections on ordinary moments may find it especially rewarding.
