“In her first collection since the National Book Award-winning New and Selected Poems, Oliver writes of the silky bonds between every person and the natural world, of the delight of writing, of the value of silence. “Her special gift is to connect us with our sources in the natural world, its beauties and terrors and mysteries and consolations.” —Stanley Kunitz
“The gift of Oliver’s poetry is that she communicates the beauty she finds in the world and makes it unforgettable.”
—Miami Herald
