A LITTLE MARY OLIVER, EVERY DAY.
Instructions for Living turns Mary Oliver’s words into a deck of 50 cards, each featuring a quote drawn from her poetry and writing. Pull one in the morning, keep one on your desk, or choose the words that feel right for the day.
The deck takes its name from one of Oliver’s best-known ideas: pay attention, be astonished, tell about it. Her observations of nature, wonder, and ordinary life make these less like traditional affirmation cards and more like small reminders to notice what’s already around you.
The cards come with a display stand, so a favorite can stay out as long as you need it.
50-card deck with display stand
Approx. 5.3 × 4.4 × 1.9 in.
Available in person this summer.
