Description
Mary Oliver's Our World brings together forty-nine photographs and selections from Molly Malone Cook's journals with extended writings in prose and poetry. This intimate collaboration reveals the lives and art of two creative women, Mary Oliver and Molly Malone Cook. The result is a unique blend of art and reflection, as Oliver writes about Cook's work, their shared world, and the people they knew. With an eye for detail and composition, Molly Malone Cook captured famous faces, including Walker Evans and Robert Motherwell, among many others. This beautiful text captures not only the qualities of her partner's work but also the texture of their shared world. In Mary Oliver's words, Molly Malone Cook taught the beginner poet "to see, with searching attention and compassion." Our World is a poignant and evocative tribute to the power of art and the beauty of everyday life.
