Ghosts of Growth
'Ghosts of Growth' Summary
'Ghosts of Growth' is a collection of poems by George Parsons Lathrop that explores the interconnectedness of nature and human emotions. The poems often depict scenes of natural beauty, particularly after a snowfall, where the world appears transformed. Lathrop uses vivid imagery and evocative language to portray the beauty of nature and its influence on human emotions. His work captures the tranquility of winter landscapes, the invigorating effects of the sun's warmth, and the cyclical nature of life and death. The collection also hints at the potential for growth and renewal that can be found in nature's cycles, reflecting on the transient nature of human existence. Through the lens of nature, Lathrop contemplates themes of beauty, decay, and the passage of time, leaving readers with a profound appreciation for the beauty and complexity of the natural world.Book Details
