Specks, Paperback / softback Book

Specks Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Poetry that combines aspects of biology with mysticism and spirituality.Celebrated since his first poetry event in San Francisco's legendary Six Gallery with Gary Snyder and Allen Ginsberg, Michael McClure's writing has followed his deepening environmental awareness and biological studies, and he has become an outspoken proponent for the protection of all beings through his essays, music, theater, and novels. When Specks was originally published in 1985 by Talonbooks, it was a revelation in terms of transcending the proprioceptive poetic methodology of Charles Olson and entering an Aristotelian realm of metaphysical questions that combined alchemically matters both scientific and mystical.

McClure's stance in the face of futurity is even more topical today.
