Snyder is a great poet and this is a wonderful compendium of his work. I am currently re-reading the portions of his work I've read before and enjoying the portions that are new to me. From one of his essays: "Monogamy and patrilineal descent may well be great obstructions to the inner changes required for a people to truly live by 'communism.'" His ideas make us think and consider alternative paths for ourselves and humanity. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
"This collection gathers the essays, travel journals, letters, poems, and translations of one of the influential voices of the twentieth century." "Gary Snyder has been a cultural force in America for five decades - prizewinning poet, environmental activist, Zen Buddhist, earth-householder, and reluctant counterculture guru. Having expanded far beyond the Beat scene that first brought his work to the public ear and eye, Snyder has produced a broad-ranging body of work that encompasses his fluency in Eastern literature and culture, his commitment to the environment, and his concepts of humanity's place in the cosmos."--BOOK JACKET.

An excellent selection of the prose and poetry of Gary Snyder, this collection reveals the development of his spritual, ecological and poetical thinking. Throughout is a faith in the unity of all being. Some of the journal entries drag a bit and may be skipped; but if you are a student of Snyder, read the whole volume. ( )
