BLUE PASTURES

Pulitzer Prize- and National Book Award-winning poet Mary Oliver has written 15 provocative and thoughtful works of prose on topics ranging from nature to understanding and defining poetry and the fascinating life of the poet Edna St. Vincent Millay. Narrator Kimberly Farr is earnest and heartfelt; she speaks with clarity and certainty. Her tone is playful; her pitch moves up and down to convey certain emotions and ask poignant questions about the natural and creative worlds she observes. The listener can hear the warmth in her voice, as well as her sense of humor. An undeniable philosophical tone, along with moments of passion, are threaded through the entire narration.
