Gary Snyder is considered one of the greatest American poets of the 20th century and a key figure of the Beat generation. Stylistically situated somewhere between Tu Fu and Thoreau, his innovative poetry has been influential across the world. This 50th anniversary edition reprints and celebrates Gary Snyder's first ever book of poems, Riprap - published in Japan in 1959 by Origin Press. It also includes Snyder's translations of Han Shan's Cold Mountain Poems, arguably one of the finest translations of that remarkable poet ever made into the English language.

Review:
"His greatest strength--a quiet and profound elegance, an ability to write a simple phrase that seems to have been echoing through human consciousness for three or four thousand years."

Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In 1953, Gary Snyder returned to the Bay Area and, at age 23, enrolled in graduate school at the University of California, Berkeley, to study Asian languages and culture. He intensified his study of Chinese and Japanese, and taking up the challenge of one of his professors, Chen Shih-hsiang, he began to work on translating a largely unknown poet by By any measure, Gary Snyder is one of the greatest poets in America in the last century. From his first book of poems to his latest collection of essays, his work and his example, standing between Tu Fu and Thoreau, have been influential all over the world. "Riprap," his first book of poems, was published in Japan in 1959 by Origin Press, and it is the fiftieth anniversary of that groundbreaking book we celebrate with this edition. A small press reprint of that book included Snyder's translations of Han Shan's "Cold Mountain Poems," perhaps the finest translations of that remarkable poet ever made into English. Reintroducing one of the twentieth century's foremost collections of poetry, this edition will please those already familiar with this work and excite a new generation of readers with its profound simplicity and spare elegance.
