About This Item
Tendril, 1980. 1st Edition. Soft cover. Very Good. Association copy: Not signed, but from the library of Annie Dillard with her bookplate. Additionally Dillard has written the names of about a dozen well-known poets not included in the collection, including Anne Sexton, "John Ashberry" [sic], Adrienne Rich, etc., in blue ink at the top of the acknowledgements page near the front of the book. Some of her favorites, maybe, or poets she feels were unjustly omitted? The premise of this book is that 100 poets chose a favorite poem from their own work--a neat idea for an anthology. Dillard is not among the contributors. A very good book with rubbing to spine and some light scratches and rubbing to wraps. // Wood (+) River (=) Books specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, and environmental literature, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions.

About Rural Hours
Rural Hours (formerly Wood + River = Books, est. 2019) specializes in ecology, natural history, nature writing, the environment, environmental literature, and contemporary essay, with a special passion for association copies and notable inscriptions. We draw our name from the popular-but-then-forgotten book by Susan Fenimore Cooper (published in 1850), generally considered the first work of environmental creative nonfiction by a woman in the U.S. We are interested in challenging and expanding the canon of environmental literature and finding books that tell remarkable stories and illuminate the tradition of writing about place and natural history.
