Has Tarzan abandoned his idyllic life in the jungle?
Yes and no.
He’s made quite a lot of money on his books and movies and now he has his own plane.
There is a special sense of kinship and community in Michael Malan’s poems: trees, streams, clouds, horses, and horizons. All things are alert, articulate, and time in touch with the timeless. These are poems of thanksgiving, and calm recognition.

Malan recognizes that the miraculous and the humdrum are simply two sides of the same coin, and as he makes clear in the title poem, he’s not afraid to “let the monkey fly the plane.”
—Gary Young, author of That’s What I Thought and Precious Mirror
