In simple, striking verse, legendary poet Gary Snyder weaves an
epic discourse on the topics of geology, prehistory, and mythology.
First published in 1996, this landmark work encompasses Asian
artistic traditions, as well as Native American storytelling and
Zen Buddhist philosophy, and celebrates the disparate elements of
the Earth -- sky, rock, water -- while exploring the human
connection to nature with stunning wisdom. Winner of the Bollingen
Poetry Prize, the Robert Kirsch Lifetime Achievement Award, and the
Orion Society's John Hay Award, among others, Gary Snyder finds his
quiet brilliance celebrated in this new edition of one of his most
treasured works.
