Synopsis "Felicity"

'And just like that, like a simple neighbourhood event, a miracle is taking place.' 'If I have any secret stash of poems, anywhere, it might be about love, not anger,' Mary Oliver once said in an interview. Finally, in Felicity , we can immerse ourselves in Oliver's love poems. Here, great happiness abounds. Our most delicate chronicler of physical landscape, Oliver has described her work as loving the world. With Felicity she examines what it means to love another person. She opens our eyes again to the territory within our own hearts; to the wild and to the quiet. In these poems, she describes - with joy - the strangeness and wonder of human connection.

Mary Oliver (1935-2019) was a distinguished American poet, born in Maple Heights, Ohio. Her work is characterized by a deep connection with nature and a reflection on the human experience. 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). Oliver regularly published both poetry and prose, exploring themes such as the intersection between the human and natural world, and the limits of human language to express such a connection.
