Meer over het boek

Exploring the deep connection between poetry and metaphysics, Charles Upton traces the lineage of poetic tradition from ancient shamans to modern poets like Emily Dickinson and Lew Welch. He presents poetry not only as a contemplative practice but also as a vital repository of human knowledge and experience. Through this lens, Upton invites readers to rediscover the profound insights that poetry offers into the nature of existence and the human experience.
