Reviews
National Book Award winner Oliver ( New and Selected Poems ) delivers with uncommon concision and good sense that paradoxical thing: a prose guide to writing poetry. Her discussion may be of equal interest to poetry readers and beginning or experienced writers. She's neither a romantic nor a mechanic, but someone who has observed poems and their writing closely and who writes with unassuming authority about the work she and others do, interspersing history and analysis with exemplary poems (the poets include James Wright, William Carlos Williams, Elizabeth Bishop, Marianne Moore and Walt Whitman). Divided into short chapters on sound, the line, imagery, tone, received forms and free verse, the book also considers the need for revision (an Oliver poem typically passes through 40 or 50 drafts before it is done) and the pros and cons of writing workshops. And though her prose is wisely spare, a reader also falls gladly on signs of a poet: ''Who knows anyway what it is, that wild, silky part of ourselves without which no poem can live?'' or ''Poems begin in experience, but poems are not in fact experience . . . they exist in order to be poems.''

    When I saw this book for less than half the price of what it typically runs, I thought I'd take a chance and place the order. Very happy I did - the book was new, sealed in shrink wrap, so better condition than described, well packed and shipped very fast for a really, really good price. Thanks!

  • A poetry handbook. Exactly what it says, gives tips and pointers.

    I have just started writing poetry for my own pleasure. It gave me the reason why, do we write and where does the inspiration come from. What Mary Oliver said is what I have sensed. Inspiration is sometimes mysterious. Enjoyed the book, and the insight within.

  • Mary Oliver's invaluable advice on writing poetry

    When a stellar poet, writer and essayist explains how she works as a poet and shares her considerable talents and tools with the readers, this book deserves a place of honor amongst any collection of books on poetry and how to write it.
