This reading of Gary Snyder's book-length poem from its evolution in the mid 1950s to its publication 40 years later traces the work's origins, as well as its themes and structure.

The author examines such personal and cultural influences on Snyder's work as his travels in Asia and his association with the beat movement of the 50s. |
