Synopsis "Red Bird "

Mary Oliver's twelfth book of poetry, Red Bird comprises sixty-one poems, the most ever in a single volume of her work. Overflowing with her keen observation of the natural world and her gratitude for its gifts, for the many people she has loved in her seventy years, as well as for her disobedient dog Percy, Red Bird is a quintessential collection of Oliver's finest lyrics.

Throughout her career, she received numerous accolades, including the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1984 for her collection "American Primitive" and the National Book Award in 1992 for "New and Selected Poems". Among her most notable works are "La escritura indómita" (2021), "Horas de invierno" (2022), and "Nuestro mundo" (2023).
