Description
Mary Oliver's fourth collection, *Twelve Moons*, offers a profound exploration of nature's cycles and the human experience within them. Anchored by twelve poems, each dedicated to a specific moon and its associated season, the collection weaves together observations of the natural world with deeply personal reflections. Oliver's signature lyrical voice captures the melancholy and loneliness that can accompany our place in a vast, spinning world, while also celebrating moments of perfection, happiness, and tender connection. This early work showcases the burgeoning power of a poet who would come to define a generation's engagement with the wild.
