Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Gary Lark is an Oregon original, steeped in the unsentimental realism of William Stafford but forging his own trail through a life of knowing deeply the land and people around him. 'Poems of place' doesn't come close to describing what Lark does with a hayfield, a kitchen, a tackle shop-he brings the reader along to inhabit them, breathe them, wade in them, and to feel the passage of loved ones and reticent strangers who guard the secrets of their own rich lives, even as we watch. Coming Down the Mountain never strays far from home, but instead goes deep into the soil, rivers, and people, examining past and present with the steady eye of someone who loves this place and also keenly understands that our time here is fragile and finite.
