SAFINA, Carl
The View from Lazy Point: A Natural Year in an Unnatural World
NY, Henry Holt, (2011). Four seasons on Long Island, interspersed with four trips: to the Arctic and the Antarctic; to the Caribbean and the West Pacific, all to show that our systems (of economics, philosophy, ethics, and religion) have drifted out of sync to our world's recent realities. Inscribed by the author prior to publication: "For Marguerite, who shares the view" (presumably from Lazy Point, as well as the worldview). Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Note that this title has a copyright date of 2011 and was published in January, 2011, but also states "First Edition 2010" and carries a full number line. Safina won the 2003 John Burroughs Medal for Eye of the Albatross.
