Prolific poet of the Beat age, and Pulitzer-Prize winner, Gary Snyder has spent a lifetime reflecting and observing life both professionally and personally.
His new book "Nobody Home: writing, buddhism, and living in places" brings his personal reflections to light through a 30-year correspondence with Julia Martin, South African writer and literary scholar.
When Martin was a grad student she posted a letter from across the world, not expecting anything to come back from Snyder. When she did, it began more than three decades of letters and emails on topics like writing, the environment, religion, and much more.
The two will appear together in conversation tonight at 7:30 pm at the Chapman Center on Trinity University's campus.
Guests:
- Gary Snyder
- Julia Martin
