Thirst by Mary Oliver. 2006 Beacon Press, second printing, 71 pages. Mary Oliver was a Pulitzer and National Book Award winning prolific poet who was greatly inspired by nature. Her career in poetry was unusual in that her books actually sold well. In her New York Times obituary: "For her abiding communion with nature, Ms. Oliver was often compared to Walt Whitman and Robert Frost. For her quiet, measured observations, and for her fiercely private personal mien (she gave many readings but few interviews, saying she wanted her work to speak for itself), she was likened to Emily Dickinson." Thirst is a collection of forty-three poems on grief and faith.

Condition: Jacket good but clipped, book VG with inscription on first page

"My work is loving the world."
