2. Ten public speeches, ten love letters to Alaska: from hibernating bear cubs to feeding whales, from trains that stop when waved to pilots flying in uninhabited areas at night... these constitute Michio Hoshino's philosophy of life - "play" is the ultimate answer to how to get along with nature.
3. 64-mo paperback edition, printed on vintage Japanese paper: Three books in the Michio Hoshino Nature Collection series, compact and easy to turn along the grain; perfect for commuting and traveling; featuring a striking, durable cover in a solid color. Bears accompany the wild, snow reflects the coolness, the body remains still, yet the mind travels far.
Introduction:
"The Magical Language" compiles ten speeches delivered by Michio Hoshino from 1987 to 1996, including his final public address 88 days before his death in Kamchatka. These speeches revolve around his eighteen years in Alaska, discussing everything from bear cubs to reindeer, humpback whales to salmon, trains that stop at a wave, and pilots flying through uninhabited areas at night. Each of these speeches reveals Michio Hoshino's deep love for Alaska, capturing the moments he has captured in his photography of the polar wilderness, wildlife, and the lives of indigenous people. The audiences for these speeches ranged from middle school and university students to novice photographers and nature enthusiasts. These ten speeches fully embody the author's philosophy of life: to indulge in what you love. In Alaska, "play" is the ultimate answer to connecting with nature.
