Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. In one volume, the indispensable prose of our "poet laureate of deep ecology" Here is Gary Snyder's own selection of his pathbreaking environmental essays, Buddhist journals, poetic notebooks, and more, including previously uncollected material Gathered for the first time in a single volume and completing the definitive Library of America edition of his works, here is the essential prose of our "poet laureate of deep ecology": philosophical essays, travel journals, poetic notebooks, reflections on Buddhism, environmental polemics, memoirs, speeches, interviews, letters, and other writings spanning the entire arc of Snyder's lauded, seventy-year career. All of Snyder's published prose collections are represented, omitting only items he feels are repetitious or merely occasional, followed by a selection of from his private journals. The volume includes: Earth House Hold: describing his life as a fire lookout in Washington State in the early 1950s, and his experiences as an initiate in a Kyoto monastery "Poetry and the Primitive," a kind of "ecological survival technique" "Buddhism and the Coming Revolution," which imagines the "nation-shaking implications" of spiritual discovery He Who Hunted Birds in His Father's Village, charting Snyder's deep engagements with Native American mythology Passage Through India: about a six-month pilgrimage with his wife and the poet Allen Ginsberg, culminating in a meeting with the Dalai Lama. The Practice of the Wild: a classic of American environmental writing in the tradition of Thoreau, Aldo Leopold, and Annie Dillard The essays in A Place in Space and Back on the Fire: exploring bioregionalism, forestry practices, sustainability, and the ecosystems of the Sierra Nevada, where Snyder has lived since 1970 The Great Clod: a mediation on the intersections of nature and culture in Asian history and literature.   It's all here, the profound reflections and inspiring meditations of our greatest living guide to the nature of meaning and the meaning of nature.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. The first collected edition of an essential, Pulitzer Prize-winning Beat poet, the indispensable voice whose deep ecological vision and Buddhist spirituality grows more relevant with each passing decade Gary Snyder is one of America's indispensable poets, the "Thoreau of the Beat Generation" and our "laureate of Deep Ecology." Now, for the first time, all of Snyder's poetry is gathered in a single, authoritative Library of America volume. Here are all of Snyder's published books of poetry spanning a career of almost seventy years. Early collections such as Riprap and Cold Mountain Poems, Myths & Texts, and The Back Country reflect his hardscrabble rural upbringing in the Pacific Northwest; his life as a logger, fire-lookout, freighter crewman, carpenter, and trail-blazer; his lifelong interest in Native American oral literatures; and his pioneering studies of Zen Buddhism. In Turtle Island and Axe Handles--the former a winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 1975 and the latter the American Book Award in 1984--he explores countercultural alternatives to environmental and spiritual decline and envisioning new forms of harmony with nature. His epic Mountains and Rivers Without End, a poem four decades in the making and regarded by many as his masterwork, is followed by Danger on Peaks, and the intimate, preternaturally candid late lyrics of This Present Moment, which meditate on his life as a father, husband, friend, neighbor, and homesteader in the foothills of California's Sierra Nevada, where he has lived since 1971. The volume concludes with a generous selection, made by Snyder himself, of previously uncollected poems from little magazines and broadsides; translations from East Asian literatures; and drafts and fragments never before published. Also included are explanatory notes, a detailed chronology of Snyder's life, and an essay on textual selection.…
