Description

In one volume, the indispensable prose of our “poet laureate of deep ecology” Here is Gary Snyder's own selection of his pathbreaking environmental essays, Buddhist journals, poetic notebooks, and more, including previously unpublished material Gathered for the first time in a single volume and completing the definitive Library of America edition of his works, here is the essential prose of our “poet laureate of deep ecology”: philosophical essays, travel journals, poetic notebooks, reflections on Buddhism, environmental polemics, memoirs, speeches, interviews, letters, and other writings spanning the entire arc of Snyder’s lauded, seventyyear career. All of Snyder’s published prose collections are included, omitting only items he feels are repetitious or merely occasional, followed by a selection of previously unpublished private journals. Includes: Earth House Hold: describing his life as a fire lookout in Washington State in the early 1950s, and his experiences as an initiate in a Kyoto monastery “Poetry and the Primitive," a kind of “ecological survival technique" “Buddhism

and the Coming Revolution," which imagines the “nation-shaking implications” of spiritual discovery He Who Hunted Birds in His Father’s Village, charting Snyder's deep engagements with Native American mythology Passage Through India: about a six-month pilgrimage with his wife and the poet Allen Ginsberg, culminating in a meeting with the Dalai Lama. The Practice of the Wild: a classic of American environmental writing in the tradition of Thoreau, Aldo Leopold, and Annie Dillard The essays in A Place in Space and Back on the Fire: exploring bioregionalism, forestry practices, sustainability, and the ecosystems of the Sierra Nevada, where Snyder has lived since 1970 The Great Clod: a mediation on the intersections of nature and culture in Asian history and literature. It's all here, the profound reflections and inspiring meditations of our greatest living guide to the nature of meaning and the meaning of nature.
