Description
Gary Snyder: Collected Poems (LOA #357) is a comprehensive gathering of an American poet's most significant works. Spanning nearly seventy years, this collection showcases Snyder's deep ecological vision and Buddhist spirituality, making his poetry increasingly relevant with each passing decade. The volume brings together early collections such as Riprap and Cold Mountain Poems, Myths & Texts, and The Back Country, which reflect Snyder's rural upbringing in the Pacific Northwest and his life as a logger, fire-lookout, freighter crewman, carpenter, and trail-blazer. Later works, including Turtle Island and Axe Handles, Mountains and Rivers Without End, and This Present Moment, explore countercultural alternatives to environmental decline and envision new forms of harmony with nature. The collection concludes with a generous selection of previously uncollected poems, translations from East Asian literatures, and drafts and fragments never before published.
