On a journey of memory inspired by men he revered, Zev Levinson brings landscapes and Humboldt history reflected in evocative photographs vividly to life. His song conveys a personal bond within nature with an immediacy of experience and a sense of the sacred that is heightened by awareness of death. Stephen Most, author of River of Renewal: Myth and History in the Klamath Basin and Stories Make the World: Reflections on Storytelling and the Art of the Documentary
. . . A quirky lifework poem with a coherent and positive vision of possibility in the face of loss. It is a truly beautiful piece about the sorrow and goodness of Californians in redwood country, and as part of it being about goodness, it evokes wonderful practical things that people can do to make the world better. David Blair, author of Arsonville, Friends with Dogs, and Ascension Days
. . . Levinson offers us a bold song from the frontiers of all waters and species, living and dead, to "build a bridge from grief." . . . These words of loss and joy ring with a mythic quality that summons native spirits . . . as well as the voices of . . . Whitman, Coleridge and Ginsberg. Susan G. Wooldridge, author of poemcrazy: freeing your life with words

Book Description Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Phillips, CM; Rand, Jennifer (illustrator). nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Song of Six Rivers relates one man's life-changing experiences throughout the Humboldt Bay region of northern California, depicting the area's geography and history along the way, through both poetry and archival photography. When the muse of this epic poem, Guy Kuttner, died unexpectedly, Zev Levinson heard his voice imploring him to sing of the land they both love. As a roving teacher of poetry in the schools, often staying in far-flung places, Zev had come to know the Six Rivers terrain and communities intimately. He put his pen to the task of meeting Guy's daunting challenge, confronting mortality and loss as he ventured to understand our connection to earth. At its heart, this endeavor strives to weave poetry into the everyday lives of those who dwell behind the redwood curtain. Seller Inventory # 9781947112025
