Winner of the 2008 Hollis Summers Poetry Prize Photographing Eden
presents the first full-length collection of poems by a major new
talent. The work meditates on several ideas, the crux of which is
Eden: spirituality, environmentalism, and the relationships between
men and women. Observing, often through the lens of a camera, our
state in the world, the poems try to focus sharply on what often
seems a blur. The poems are always attentive to artistic mediums
and the craft behind them because our struggle is to make something
perfect in the imperfect world in which we live, while
acknowledging the impossibility of that quest. Gray's poems range
all over, from adventures in Egyptian ruins with machine-gun-toting
tourist police to the western edge of the foggy Irish coastline,
and to the mythic past, where Adam and Eve visit a zoo and Eden has
become a nature preserve.

Situated in Central Africa, the nation of Gabon is a vibrant and
mysterious place full of rich history, diverse culture, and
stunning biodiversity. In the midst of the African rainforest, a
Peace Corps volunteer from Montana is thrust into a new life of
adventure and discovery. From close encounters with forest
elephants to classroom teaching challenges, this vivid retelling of
one man's experiences takes readers on an extraordinary journey
through daily life, cultural events, and ongoing conservation
efforts, and shares his love affair with a country that will
forever own a piece of his heart. An enthralling account of life in
Gabon, particularly around the Ndougou Lagoon, this new book by
Jason Gray leaves us with a powerful impression of having shared in
his experiences. Gray's underlying reverence for Gabon and its
people comes out strongly in this recounting of his three years of
work there with the Peace Corps and the World Wide Fund for Nature
(WWF International), and shows the importance of understanding
other cultures while enhancing individual awareness of the global
community. Glimpses through the Forest: Memories of Gabon is an
engaging read for eco and cultural travel enthusiasts,
conservationists, nature lovers, and other adventure seekers.
