Penick confronts not only his own mortality, but also that of the planet. Penick's eloquent, impassioned investigation transports the reader to distant worlds, while at the same time linking our contemporary reality, with its medical, economic, and ecological emergencies, to an inner landscape which may prove more constant, durable, and transformative than we realize--
