Through lyric walking poems (“tree walks” and “shade walks”) and Bashō-style travelogue, Shade is a place unfolds as much through arboreal life as through one’s inner life—sometimes alone, sometimes with others, and always among turning trees.

Turning his inimitable eye and ear to the complexities of dog behavior, Collins ponders all that these winning creatures give us and what we learn from them about ourselves.

Der Taucher ist eine 1797 vom deutschen Dichter Friedrich Schiller im Balladenjahr verfasste Ballade. Sie beschreibt den Wagemut eines Edelknaben, der sich nach Aufforderung seines Königs in einen Gezeitenstrudel stürzt, um einen vom König hinein geworfenen goldenen Becher wieder zu holen. Es gelingt, und er berichtet davon (Es freue sich, wer da atmet im rosichten Licht. / Doch der Mensch versuche die Götter nicht…). Die Hybris des Königs, der es ein zweites Mal sehen will und seine Tochter dafür gebe, steckt auch den Jüngling an, und er versucht es abermals, ohne Wiederkehr.
