Edition DescriptionDeluxe
SynopsisA beautiful deluxe edition of the New York Times bestselling Dog Songs , now housed in an elegant box along with a special poster--containing a new poem from Mary Oliver, not released in the previous edition--perfect for framing and gift-giving. Beloved by her readers, special to the poet's own heart, Mary Oliver's dog poems offer a special window into her world. Dog Songs collects some of the most cherished poems together with new works, offering a portrait of Oliver's relationship to the companions that have accompanied her daily walks, warmed her home, and inspired her work. To be illustrated with images of the dogs themselves, the subjects will come to colorful life here. These are poems of love and laughter, heartbreak and grief. In these pages we visit with old friends, including Oliver's well-loved Percy, and meet still others. Throughout, the many dogs of Oliver's life emerge as fellow travelers, but also as guides, spirits capable of opening our eyes to the lessons of the moment and the joys of nature and connection. Dog Songs is a testament to the power and depth of the human-animal exchange, from an observer of extraordinary vision. The New York Times " Dog Songs... is a sweet golden retriever of a book that curls up with the reader."

  • A perfect prize of a book for dog lovers who also love poetry.

    I am so happy to have found a brand new book of "Dog Songs" by poet Mary Oliver. This is a lovely volume, encased in a book envelope that really adds a touch of class. The book itself is clearly brand new, the spine has never been bent. So glad I found this!

  • If you love dogs...

    If you're a dog owner or just a dog lover, you will identify with the poetry in this book. It's clear that Mary has had many dogs in her life and understood each one as an individual. Some sad poems, some happy ones but each of them tells a story worth repeating.
