Summary:  In this collection of interviews and letters spanning three decades, American poet Gary Snyder talks with South African writer and scholar Julia Martin. Over this period many things changed decisively -- globally, locally, and in their personal lives -- and these changing conditions provide the back story for a long conversation. It begins in the early 1980s as an intellectual exchange between an earnest graduate student and a generous distinguished writer, and becomes a long-distance friendship and an exploration of spiritual practice. At the project’s heart is Snyder's understanding of Buddhism. Again and again, the conversations return to an explication of the teachings. Snyder’s characteristic approach is to articulate a direct experience -- life as lived creatively in a particular location at a particular moment in history. Whatever topic a dialogue explores, there is a sense that all of it is about the spiritual and social practice of a contemporary poet. Other authors:  Martin, Julia.
