Her special gift is to connect us with our sources in the natural world, its beauties and terrors and mysteries and consolations.'\nFor anyone who values poetry and essays, for anyone who cares about birds, Owls and Other Fantasies will be a treasured gift; for those who love both, it will be essential reading.","brand":"Little, Brown Book Group","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67717759271200,"sku":"9781472160935","price":11.04,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0753\/2812\/7264\/files\/9781472160935_3107936.jpg?v=1791631636","url":"https:\/\/bookcorner.com\/products\/owls-and-other-fantasies-mary-oliver-9781472160935","provider":"The Book Corner","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
