Description
Annie Dillard's "Mornings Like This" presents a unique collection of found poetry, where phrases meticulously culled from disparate old books are artfully rearranged into new, often ironic, compositions. Each poem emerges from a different source, transcending the original text's subject matter to create something entirely fresh and thought-provoking. Dillard's masterful manipulation of language transforms these borrowed fragments into taut, profound, and sometimes startlingly resonant works that invite deep contemplation.
