It felt like a vacation full of wonder and magic.Deze bespreking is geschreven voor LibraryThing Vroege Recensenten. This book is visually attractive. The drawings and paintings are appealing in the author's use of color and composition. The text is often poetic in its detailed descriptions of the author's relationship with animals especially the Przewalski horses as well as people she meets in Mongolia. The author's love of what she describes is evident in her melodic prose. If a picture is worth a thousand words, this book has both beautiful pictures and words flowing with love for what they describe. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
An artist visits Hustai National Park in Mongolia and takes part in the reintroduction project of the wild Przewalski horses, or Wind Horses as they are known by Mongolians. A reflection on the story of humans and horses in the wilderness, illustrated with 36 original colour paintings. Searching for her place in the world, she finds company with wild horses and explores the interplay between the herd and the lone wolf. "I slipped across the grasses, becoming one with the trees and rocks. Sometimes, they passed so close I could have reached out my hand to skim their hides, the ribs, the last of their tattered winter coats." "It was natural then that I'd made my way here, having been affected and altered by horses throughout my life." An excerpt of this work was published in Travelers' Tales: The Best Travel Writing 2009, under the title, "In a Place of Wind". Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
