Upstream: Selected Essays

“Upstream: Selected Essays” by Mary Oliver is a collection that invites readers into the rich and contemplative world of one of America’s most beloved poets. Published in 2016, the book gathers essays that reflect Oliver’s deep connection to nature, her keen observations of the world, and her contemplative exploration of life’s profound questions. The essays are a testament to Oliver’s unique ability to weave together the threads of nature, philosophy, and personal reflection. Through her lyrical prose, she shares insights into the natural world, the creative process, and the quiet moments that shape a meaningful existence. Each essay is a journey upstream, against the current of superficial distractions, leading readers to deeper reflections on the human experience and our place within the larger tapestry of existence. --- Product Features --- Weight: 0.2, kg Written_By: Mary, Oliver Publisher: Penguin Book Type: Non-Fiction Best For: Reads, on, solitude|observation|and, the, interconnectedness, of, the, natural, world Ages: 16+ Language: English Binding: Paperback Edition: Reprint, edition, (1, October, 2019) Isbn: 978-0143130086 Printing Remarks: Imported Dimension: 12.7, x, 1.52, x, 19.69, cm Total Pages: N/A
