Hadley, Ken Lopez Bookseller, 2000. In a 4-page introduction to a catalog of nature writing, Lopez takes the measure of the field to argue that it is "that strain of American literature that, more than others now, is pursuing the ancient discourse on human fate," and that "like any worthy literature it should continue to undermine complacency, resist definition, and induce hope." An interesting essay, on a subject close to the writer's heart, and not reprinted elsewhere that we're aware of. Fine in wrappers. [#035676] $45
