A collection of previously uncollected and unpublished works by a Pulitzer Prize-winning Beat poet Gary Snyder, written during his most productive and important yearsFar from being a simple miscellany of poems, Uncollected Poems, Drafts, Fragments, and Translations contains some of Gary Snyder' s best work, written during his most productive and important years. Many of these have been published in magazines or as broadsides, including Spel Against Demons, Dear Mr. President, Hymn to the Goddess San Francisco, Smokey the Bear Sutra, A Curse on the Men in Washington, Pentagon. The collection also includes a great number of translations from Chinese and Japanese poets. Much of this work has been gleaned from journals, manuscripts and correspondence, and never before published in any form.
"Snyder' s is a wise voice crying out on behalf of the wilderness with an authority and eloquence that' s not been heard in our literature since Thoreau. " -San Francisco Chronicle "His sense of the history of land and cultures and his ability to write as both the Worker and the Thinker create a fertile whole. " -Los Angeles Times
