Soft cover. Condition: Poor. Limited Edition. Jaroslav Seifert (1901?1986) was a Nobel Prize?winning Czechoslovak writer, poet and journalist. In 1984 Jaroslav Seifert won the Nobel Prize in Literature "for his poetry which endowed with freshness, sensuality and rich inventiveness provides a liberating image of the indomitable spirit and versatility of man." However, it is virtually impossible to translate his poetry into another language from Czech because of his emphasis on devices of sound and musical technique. The attempt of these translation was to capture the spirit of the Czech language while keeping the rondel verse form. This is a bilingual edition so you can check the success of these efforts.

Flywater brings us to these iconic waters anew - the creeks, springs, and freestone rivers that make the West the world's premiere destination for fly fishing. McClintock's careful eye strikes a chord with fishermen as he takes the reader to these fabulous places - from the storied Henry's Fork to the Yellowstone to the Thompson River in British Columbia.

For the uninitiated, it is an artfully crafted guidebook to an exotic new world that really does exist on the streams and rivers of the West. With more than 200 photographs, Flywater is a gallery of moments. McClintock's rich photos create a compelling journey that the reader, whether fisherman or not, will thoroughly enjoy." - from the inner front jacket flap.
