by Billy Plant (Author)
Ever wonder what it would be like to take a road trip with Thoreau and Kerouac as your travelling companions? Mother Earth and Other Pretty Girls will give you some idea. In this collection of poems, stories, essays, and journal entries, Billy Plant takes readers down winding country roads and rugged hiking trails across the United States and abroad, inviting readers to contemplate life with him on a remote rim of the Grand Canyon or while walking through the heavy air of a Gothic cathedral amid a cacophony of bells. Ranging from Tennessee to Guam, Iceland to Singapore, this collection weaves the natural world with the metaphysical, even the paranormal, exploring the tangled web of the human spirit while providing descriptions of Nature in all its seasons and glory. Richly illustrated with photographs, Mother Earth and Other Pretty Girls is the book to take along when you only have room for one book.
