House of Light Review: Poetry, what is poetry? It is Mary Oliver's poetical work. - I just love Mary Oliver. I think her poetry is stunningly beautiful and profound. Starting from the natural elements that surround us she weaves a world of beauty, enchantment and love. Philosophical, thoughtful and full of feeling for the world both seen and unseen. Review: Poems for Talking Turkey - This is poetry for people who struggle to appreciate its traditional forms (like me), whose brains are concrete-centric. You'll want to take your time and allow each one to sink in. Since for the most part, they're about the natural world, there is no fluff, no buffer from reality. Some are heartbreaking. But there's also hope here, and humor. You may find that some lines echo in your head, as they have in mine. "Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" from The Summer Day. And, ". . . maybe death isn't darkness, after all, but so much light wrapping itself around us - . . . " from White Owl Flies Into and Out of the Field. This collection was published almost 35 years ago and I hope that in another 35 years the places that Ms. Oliver wrote about will exist just as they did then. But even if they don't, we have her extraordinary vision to connect us to the natural world. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #580,968 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #333 in Nature Poetry #1,189 in Poetry by Women #15,809 in Women's Biographies | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (427) | | Dimensions | 5.51 x 0.24 x 8.5 inches | | Edition | Later Printing | | ISBN-10 | 080706811X | | ISBN-13 | 978-0807068113 | | Item Weight | 4.4 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 96 pages | | Publication date | April 8, 1992 | | Publisher | Beacon Press | ## Images ![House of Light - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81LxyXdqn9L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Poetry, what is poetry?

HOUSE OF LIGHT is one of several thin volumes of poems, written over several decades, that permit one to bring these jewels of poetic art along without being a heavy thick book, so you could carry Mary in your luggage or your briefcase or backpack. This is simply a lovely piece of work. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hk/products/8175382-house-of-light](https://www.desertcart.hk/products/8175382-house-of-light) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hong Kong* *Store origin: HK* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
