    Extractions: Hawaii is a world apart, not quite another country but far more than just another American state. The little town of Volcano , 4,000 feet above sea level on the Big Island, between Kilauea and Mauna Loa, is one of the Hawaiian islands' hidden treasures, a place of cool air, dense green forests, and night skies lit up by the glow from Kilauea's lava flows. It's also the birthplace of poet Garrett Hongo, whose return to his origins is the springboard for Volcano, a work of lyrical prose by a master of language, and a wonderful introduction to the subtlety and complexity of life in Hawaii. Volcano is a big chunk of the sublime I'd been born tothe craters and ancient firepit and huge black seas of hardened lava, the rain forest lush with all varieties of ferns, orchids, exotic gingers, and wild lilies, the constant rain and sunshowers all dazzled me, exalted me." Hongo walks through the lava fields and rain forest around Volcano with a determination to bring this "exotic and slightly miraculous place" to life on the page. His success is due to his extraordinary gift for language and the extreme precision of his observation. His work is a reminder that poets are the most accurate reporters of all.

    Extractions: Search WWW Search Exhibits Nature Writing: An Exploration of a Genre, McHenry and Science Libraries took place from September 18-December 18, 1995 at the University of California, Santa Cruz. Nature writing synthesizes scientific information and artistic/literary expression, producing some of the most evocative and essential writing of the late twentieth century. But what is nature writing? Does it include fiction and poetry? What are the historical and cultural roots of this genre, and whose voices have been included or excluded? This exhibit featured writing by Barry Lopez, Terry Tempest Williams, Gary Nabhan, Rachel Carson, Gretel Ehrlich, John McPhee, Linda Hogan, Leslie Marmon Silko, Garrett Hongo, and other writers of natural history literature. Bibliography Note: Because Nature Writing crosses science and the humanities, and transcends the boundaries of traditional disciplines it can be difficult for the library researcher to locate. The anthologies listed in this bibliography are a good place to begin to delve into the primary writers in the genre. Audubon magazine (UCSC Sci Lib QL671.A82) also publishes a variety of nature writing. Diane Ackerman

69. Volcano : A Memoir Of Hawai'i
    garrett hongo grew up with a profound sense of estrangement fromhis past Family secrets, evasions, and my own ignorance fed an anger and a Book  
    http://hallmemoirs.com/regional_us/391.shtml
    
    Extractions: Garrett Hongo grew up with a profound sense of estrangement from his past: "Family secrets, evasions, and my own ignorance fed an anger and a desire to know that would not abate." Born in Hawai'i, raised in Los Angeles after the age of six, a fourth generation Japanese American, inheritor of a recent past more comfortably forgotten than kept alive for Hongo, the "knowing" he so desired would come only when he returned to Volcano, the tiny town where he was born. This beautifully rendered memoir is an account of that journey, finally undertaken when he was in his early thirties: a journey toward the knowledge, about himself and his history, that would give him, at last, "a way to belong and a place to belong to." Arriving in Volcano with his wife and infant son, Hongo settled in a cottage in the rain forest, amidst the "relentlessly spectacular landscape" below the summit of the Kilauea volcano. There, near the general store once owned by his grandfather, among people who quickly recognized the family resemblance in his face, he began to forge a connection to the human culture that, though he was pulled from it at an early age, helped to shape him, and to the living earth that helped to shape that culture. In this way, Hongo both native son and prodigal son found his own path into a world where "nothing was without its meaning or its memories."
