Mornings with the Pulitzer Prize-winning 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. In these pages, Oliver shares the wonder of dawn, the grace of animals, and the transformative power of attention. Whether studying the leaves of a tree or mourning her adored dog, Percy, she is ever patient in her observations and open to the teachings contained in the smallest of moments.
Our most precious chronicler of physical landscape, Oliver opens our eyes to the nature within, to its wild and its quiet. With startling clarity, humor, and kindness, A THOUSAND MORNINGS explores the mysteries of our daily experience.

Recenzii de la cititorii Books Express
Angela Stefania Szavui a dat nota:
Este un volum deosebit, ca toate din seria aceasta de poezii scrise de Mary Oliver. Poeta are un mod aparte de a privi lumea, fiecare poezie are ceva surpinzător, oricât de "trecuți prin viață" ne-am crede. Recomand acest volum pentru a fi făcut cadou oricând inclusiv nouă înșine. Ediția e frumoasă, de colecție, care își poate găsi locul pe orice noptieră și bibliotecă. Pe pagina book express a fost singurul loc unde am mai găsit cartea disponibilă, cu livrare înainte de Crăciun. N-am fost foarte încrezătoare în datele de livrare estimate, dar chiar a ajuns cartea la mine în intervalul indicat, am fost foarte recunoscătoare pentru acest lucru, așa am putut să și citesc volumul înainte de a-l face cadou.

I GO DOWN TO THE SHORE
I go down to the shore in the morning
and depending on the hour the waves
are rolling in or moving out,
and I say, oh, I am miserable,
what shall—
what should I do? And the sea says
in its lovely voice:
Excuse me, I have work to do.
