The title comes from a Native American term for the continent of North America, and Snyder wants to reclaim the organic and holistic environmental harmony that once held sway here. Still, this is poetry, not diatribe. Snyder's key virtue isn't his political or philosophical vision, but his poetic articulation of that vision. Excellent. ]]> 1230 4.14 2022 136 1974 10922 1593760159 9781593760151 6 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1166361756m/10922.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1166361756s/10922.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10922.Riprap_and_Cold_Mountain_Poems 4.27 187 1230 4.14 2022 136 1980 99437 0679742522 9780679742524 12 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171437509m/99437.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171437509s/99437.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/99437.No_Nature_New_and_Selected_Poems 4.16 188 1230 4.14 2022 136 1992 1836 0865474540 9780865474543 16 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1223649841m/1836.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1223649841s/1836.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1836.The_Practice_of_the_Wild_Essays 4.30 174 1230 4.14 2022 136 1990 99436 1887178570 9781887178570 10 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171437509m/99436.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171437509s/99436.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/99436.Mountains_and_Rivers_Without_End 4.19 164 1230 4.14 2022 136 1996 99435 0811201945 9780811201940 5 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171437509m/99435.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171437509s/99435.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/99435.The_Back_Country 4.06 136 The Back Country is one of Gary Snyder's most serious engagements with Eastern culture and thought. Much of the book works to achieve a perspective by means of contrast, as in "Hitch Haiku," a series of haiku (a Japanese form of imagistic, syllabic verse) mostly set in the American West. Perhaps the strongest poem is "Oil," in which Snyder envisions a tanker as a needle bringing our addicted nation "long injections of pure oil." ]]> 1230 4.14 2022 136 1971 458068 0811201953 9780811201957 2 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174935746m/458068.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1174935746s/458068.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/458068.Earth_House_Hold_Technical_Notes_and_Queries_to_Fellow_Dharma_Revolutionaries 4.15 96 1230 4.14 2022 136 1957 99431 1582430799 9781582430799 7 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171437501m/99431.jpg http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1171437501s/99431.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/99431.The_Gary_Snyder_Reader 4.34 90 Gary Snyder has been a major cultural force in America for five decades-prize-winning poet, environmental activist, Zen Buddhist, and reluctant counterculture guru. Having expanded far beyond the Beat poems that first brought his work into the public eye, Snyder has produced a wide-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. The Gary Snyder Reader showcases the panoramic range of his literary vision in a single-volume survey that will appeal to students and general readers alike.

Danger on Peaks begins with poems about Snyder’s first ascent of Mount St. Helens in 1945 and his learning that atomic bombs had been dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki on the morning of his descent. Containing work in a surprising variety of styles, creating an arc-shaped trail from these earliest climbs to what the poet calls poems “of intimate, immediate life, gossip and insight,” Danger on Peaks is Snyder’s most personal work ever.</div>]]> 1230 4.14 2022 136 2004
