By Mary Oliver.

New York: The Penguin Press, (2014).

First deluxe edition, first printing.

"This edition published 2014" statement and first printing number code sequence 1 through 10 to the copyright page.

A strikingly lovely deluxe book production, and rather elusive in this impressively giftable edition.

Various evocative dog illustrations in pen-and-ink, on full-page art plates by John Burgoyne.

A collection of dog, human and dog combinations, symbolic, and relationship poems, verses and narrative verses.

Very nearly fine, square, and very tight in crisp red linen with white embossed note to the reader to the front cover, and with white embossed titles to the spine, red headband and tail-band, cream end-papers, faint very small tan spot to the half-title page fore-edge; in a near fine cream-tweed linen slipcase with art plate and an embossed red border to the front panel, red embossed titles to the spine panel, some minor, small, very faint tannish-pink stains to the front and spine panels.
