商品簡介
Celebrated poet David Mason reviews the work and lives of writers who traveled, who emigrated or were exiled, who shaped the literature of their homelands. Mason writes about seasoned travelers (Patrick Leigh Fermor, Bruce Chatwin, Joseph Conrad, Herodotus himself); about writers far from their birthplaces whose work nonetheless is deeply reflective of their native lands (James Joyce, Kevin Hart); and writers whose voices come to represent their region (in this case Mason focuses on the American West: Wallace Stegner, Edward Abbey, Belle Turnbull, Robinson Jeffers).
Mason explores the ways literary voices are formed by a specific place, or rise from a lifetime of successive places—that is, travel—and he writes about how place can be captured by a voice and presented through literature. These essays are about the pleasure and knowledge readers can gain by engaging with writers’ lives, their travels, and the homes they make for themselves.
David Mason is the author of numerous books of poetry, most recently Sea Salt and Davey McGravy; a memoir, News from the Village; and a novel, Ludlow. A former Fulbright fellow to Greece, he lives in Colorado and Oregon and teaches at Colorado College.
