A review by htoo
American Primitive by Mary Oliver

adventurous hopeful inspiring lighthearted reflective fast-paced

4.0

This collection of poems reminds me of those David Attenborough documentaries about nature. I read it all in one sitting, and honestly, it was a vibe. Mary Oliver writes mainly about nature and themes that are universal to the human experience. I just wished we had gotten more poems like Tecumseh, which is more nuance.
