| THE SAVAGE POEM AROUND ME: WILDNESS & DESOLATION | |||
| As the boat that brought Lambourne to his isolated Gunnison Island sailed away, the overwhelming loneliness of his situation struck him: “Ghostly, wrapped in its shroud of snow, my island stands white above the blackness of unfreezing waters. What have I done? Although I had lived these days by anticipation, no sooner had the sails of the departing yacht vanished below the watery horizon, and left me with my thoughts alone, than I realized at once, and with a strange sinking of the heart, how more intense, indeed, how deeper than all imagining, is the wildness and desolation of the savage poem around me." (Inland Sea, pp. 19-20) | |||
