Inhaltsangabe

Discover 35+ treasured poems by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Gary Snyder in this landmark poetry collection celebrating Zen Buddhism, travel, and our connection to nature.

“A magnificent achievement . . . like a modern Leaves of Grass, combines fascination with the varied particulars of the way people live with awe at the majesty of nature” —Publishers Weekly

In simple, striking verse, legendary poet Gary Snyder weaves an epic discourse on the topics of geology, prehistory, and mythology. First published in 1996, this landmark poetry collection encompasses Asian artistic traditions, as well as Native American storytelling and Zen Buddhist philosophy, and celebrates the disparate elements of the Earth—sky, rock, water—while exploring the human connection to nature with stunning wisdom.

Winner of the Bollingen Poetry Prize, the Robert Kirsch Lifetime Achievement Award, and the Orion Society’s John Hay Award, among others, Gary Snyder finds his quiet brilliance celebrated in this new edition of one of his most treasured works.
