"Mary Oliver continues to tutor us in attention, gratitude, and reverence in this new collection of forty-seven poems."—Frederick and Mary Brussat, Spirituality and Health

Praise for Owls and Other Fantasies:

"Mary Oliver is beautiful and accurate in this book of poetry and prose about birds…all rendered with the precision of a line-drawing of a single feather that puts the entire wing into perspective."
—Orion

Praise for Mary Oliver's poetry:

"These are life enhancing and redemptive poems that coax the sublime from the subliminal."
—Sally Connolly, Poetry

"Mary Oliver's poems are natural growths out of a loam of perception and feeling, and instinctive skill with language makes them seem effortless. Reading them is a sensual delight."
—May Swenson

"The gift of Oliver's poetry is that she communicates the beauty she finds in the world and makes it unforgettable"
—Miami Herald
