The Truro Bear and Other Adventures: Poems and Essays, Paperback/Mary Oliver

The Truro Bear and Other Adventures , a companion volume to Owls and Other Fantasies and Blue Iris , brings together ten new poems, thirty-five of Oliver's classic poems, and two essays all about mammals, insects, and reptiles. The award-winning poet considers beasts of all kinds: bears, snakes, spiders, porcupines, humpback whales, hermit crabs, and, of course, her beloved but disobedient little dog, Percy.
