Found poems are to their poet what no-fault insurance is to beneficiaries: payoffs waiting to happen where everyone wins and no one is blamed. Dillard culls about 40 such happy accidents from sources as diverse as a The American Boys Handy Book (1882) and the letters of Van Gogh. . . . the poet aims for a lucky, loaded symbolism that catapults the reader into an epiphany never imagined by the original authors. -- Publishers Weekly In Mornings Like This, beloved author Annie Dillard has given us a witty and moving collection of poems in a wholly original form, sure to charm her fans, both old and new. Extracting and rearranging sentences from old and odd books--From D.C. Beards The American Boys Handy Book in 1882 to Van Goghs letters to David Greysons The Countrymans Year in 1936--Dillard has composed poems on poetrys most heartfelt themes of love, nature, nostalgia, and death. A unique, clever, and original collection, Dillards characteristic voice sounds throughout the pages.
