First Edition Signed
First edition, first printing, signed by the author on the title page. This collection includes "The Summer Day" and the 13 Percy poems, discussing Oliver's "new dog, named for the beloved poet" (p. 68). Mary Oliver (1935-2019) won the Pulitzer Prize in 1984 and the National Book Award in 1992. Primarily a poet of nature, she lived for most of her writing career in Provincetown, Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and has been compared to Emerson and Emily Dickinson. Her poetry is "an excellent antidote for the excesses of civilization, for too much hurry and inattention, and the baroque conventions of our social and professional lives. [She] is a poet of wisdom and generosity whose vision allows us to look intimately at a world not of our making. The humbling effect of that perspective is her lasting gift to readers" (Matson, p. 164). Suzanne Matson, "New and Selected Poems by Mary Oliver", Harvard Review, no. 4, Spring 1993. Square octavo. Original brown quarter cloth, spine lettered in gilt, red board sides and endpapers. With dust jacket. A fine copy in fine, unclipped jacket.

First Edition Signed
First edition of this collection by the award-winning poet. Octavo, original half cloth. Signed by Mary Oliver on the title page. Fine in a fine dust jacket. Jacket design by Bob Kosturko. Mary Oliver was described by The New York Times as "far and away, [America's] best-selling poet." She has won both the Pulitzer Prize in 1984 and the National Book Award in 1992. Oliver's poetry has been called an "indefatigable guide to the natural world, particularly to its lesser-known aspects" (Kumin, 1993). "Visionary as Emerson [ she is] among the few American poets who can describe and transmit ecstasy, while retaining a practical awareness of the world as one of predators and prey," reviewed The Nation. Holly Prado of Los Angeles Times Book Review noted that Oliver's work "touches a vitality in the familiar that invests it with a fresh intensity.".
