Blue Earth : Preface

by T Newfields

The theme of this book is water. Here you'll find a range of works about the oceans, rivers, ponds, and steams. Most of the works in the first half of this book celebrate the power of the natural world; those in the next section focus on problems due to a host of imbalances. The dialogs represent different voices in the author and a pull between engagement and indifference. A range of writing styles & ideological viewpoints weave through this work: whereas some pieces are idyllic, others are tinged with satire.No single ideology prevails: instead we are left with a chorus of varied views. Enjoy the explorations and see if anything resonates.
