Book excerpt: Thoughts is primarily an adventure and romantic investigation into what itmeans to be a rugged and unsatisfied young writer in modern America. It isactually just what the title suggests - the distancing of thoughts fromthose that do not adhere to the modern climate in America which have helpedestablish a mood of social boredom, alienation and a basic distancing ofourselves from life. These are all thoughts that affect the poet; thoughtsof love, nature, questioning, flight and revolt. This is a book whichdistinctly comes from the American tradition of writers. From such writersas Kerouac and Henry Miller to Thoreau, Twain and Whitman, this is a bookwhich seeks to get back to the literary roots which make American writersdistinct in their search for beauty and wisdom. The sharp contrast of thejoyous writer who desires to become an artist is almost diametricallyopposed to the spirit which pervades a defeated America. In the Americantradition of writing, we could easily define this as a book searching to getback to those elements of life that give us our supreme joys. A book wherestaring into the night sky can inspire an incredulous journey.
