Red Bird

Red Bird

BY MARY OLIVER
A collection of 61 new poems, including a cycle of eleven linked love poems. The pages overflow with her keen observation of the natural world and her gratitude for its gifts, but the poet's attention turns with ferocity to the degradation of the Earth and the denigration of the peoples of the world by those who love power. Red Bird is unquestionably Mary Oliver's most wideranging volume.
