White Pine: Poems and Prose Poems
Wherein the poet continues her literary program with much the same sort of excellent poems about nature, the connection between the natural and the physical, and the tug-of-war between the familiar and the mysterious.I Found A Dead Fox, seemingly influenced byWilliam Carlos Williams, gives one a good sense of the imagery in this fine collection. Oliver writes: "I found a dead fox / beside the gravel road,/ curled up inside the big/ iron wheel/ of an old tractor."  Toads, mockingbirds, and afternoons of chopping wood fill these pages, as do beautiful, provocative images.  Highly recommended.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
