Specificatii
One of O, The Oprah Magazine's Ten Best Books of the Year The New
York Times bestselling collection of essays from beloved poet, Mary
Oliver. In the beginning I was so young and such a stranger to
myself I hardly existed. I had to go out into the world and see it
and hear it and react to it, before I knew at all who I was, what I
was, what I wanted to be. So begins Upstream, a collection of
essays in which revered poet Mary Oliver reflects on her
willingness, as a young child and as an adult, to lose herself
within the beauty and mysteries of both the natural world and the
world of literature. Emphasizing the significance of her childhood
friend Walt Whitman, through whose work she first understood that a
poem is a temple, a place to enter, and in which to feel, and who
encouraged her to vanish into the world of her writing, Oliver
meditates on the forces that allowed her to create a life for
herself out of work and love. As she writes, I could not be a poet
without the natural world. Someone else could. But not me. For me
the door to the woods is the door to the temple. Upstream follows
Oliver as she contemplates the pleasure of artistic labor, her
boundless curiosity for the flora and fauna that surround her, and
the responsibility she has inherited from Shelley, Wordsworth,
Emerson, Poe, and Frost, the great thinkers and writers of the
past, to live thoughtfully, intelligently, and to observe with
passion. Throughout this collection, Oliver positions not just
herself upstream but us as well as she encourages us all to keep
moving, to lose ourselves in the awe of the unknown, and to give
power and time to the creative and whimsical urges that live within
us.
