Two volumes of fiction from the National Book Award-winning author
of Arctic Dreams: "Lopez feels a deep spiritual connection to the
natural world." -San Francisco Chronicle To National Book
Award-winning author Barry Lopez, the desert and the river are
landscapes alive with poetry, mystery, seduction, and enchantment.
In these two works of fiction, the narrator responds viscerally and
emotionally to their moods and changes, their secrets and silences,
and their unique power. Desert Notes portrays the mystical power of
an American desert, and the reflections it sparks in the characters
who travel there. River Notes, a companion piece, celebrates the
wild life forces of a river, calling readers to think deeply on
identity and about the hopefulness of their onward journeys, with a
lyrical collection of memories, stories, and dreams. From an
evocative tale of finding a hot spring in a desert to a meditation
on the thoughts and dreams of herons, Lopez offers enthralling
stories that enable us to see and feel the rhythms of the
wilderness. These sojourns bring readers a specific sense of the
darkness, light, and resolve that we encounter within ourselves
when away from home.
