Turtle Island: Snyder's Collected Poems
Literature龟岛：斯奈德诗集
(us) Gary Snyder
Gary Snyder is a representative of the Beats and is known as the "Poet Laureate of Deep Ecology." His poems focus on the essence of life and the roots of culture, embodying the original connection between man and nature. They are very Zen-like and have profound inspiration for people's current living conditions. "Turtle Island" won Snyder the 1975 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry. Snyder takes poetry as his ambition, narrates his daily life in seclusion, sings about heaven, earth and nature, and calls on people to regain the "ancient unity." This book consists of four parts: the first three parts are poetry, and the fourth part is prose. This collection of poems fully absorbs Buddhist ideas on origin and traditional Western ecology, and the world in the poems is greatly enriched by these two factors.
