A Hundred White Daffodils

In A Hundred White Daffodils - an enlightening and typically endearing collection of prose and poetry - the late author of five highly regarded books of verse reflects on her writing life, growing spirituality, passionate hobbies, and ultimately fatal struggle with leukemia. Jane Kenyon is one of the most beloved poets on the contemporary American scene; this book shows us why and how this came to be.

Jane Kenyon was born in Ann Arbor and graduated from the University of Michigan. She published five collections of poetry, including Otherwise: New & Selected Poems, and lived and worked with her husband Donald Hall in Wilmot, New Hampshire, until her death in 1995.
