Upstream: Selected Essays by Mary Oliver (Paperback)

Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Mary Oliver gathers her finest prose in this collection of essays. Writing with the same clarity and wonder that define her poetry, she reflects on the natural world, the writers who shaped her, and the practice of paying close attention to life.

From walks through woods and along the shore to meditations on Emerson, Whitman and Poe, these pieces celebrate curiosity, creativity and a deep connection to the earth. A New York Times bestseller, this paperback is a lovely gift for poetry lovers, nature writers and anyone seeking calm, thoughtful reading.
