Paperback. Zustand: New. Late in life, the American novelist and conservationist Wallace Stegner left California, where he had lived for half a century, to move to Vermont. The reason, he said, was simple: there is more wilderness to be found in the pine forests of western New England than in the Far West. John Elder supports Stegner's claim, writing in Reading the Mountains of Home that the abandoned farmsteads of so many of Robert Frost's Vermont poems have now reverted to wild lands, dense with fallen logs and snags, full of bird and animal life. A longtime resident of the state, Elder uses Frost's great but little-known poem 'Directive' as a touchstone by which to guide his discussion of how modern humans can truly inhabit a landscape--in this case, a landscape that had been developed for generations and then all but forgotten. In such places, Elder writes, the issue is not one of wilderness versus civilization, that old trope, but the wildness that endures at the edges of settled places, wildness that is accessible to people all around the world. His celebration of returning greenness, of the forest's seasons, and of his own life in the woods makes for engaging reading indeed. --Gregory McNamee.
Zustand: New. A jouney into the Vermont hills, where in the 19th century humans tried their hand, and where bear and moose now find shelter. Robert Frost's poem "Directive" accompanies the text, and sees the reader through a landscape in which nature and literature, loss and recovery, are inextricably joined.
